Lekan1o1: Hello, I understand what youre going through and i know it can be really disturbing, but dont worry its not so big a problem. This condition is known as computer vision syndrome. You know? In other for the eyes to maintain focus at an abject very close to you, it needs to converge (come close together-toward your nose). and if you remain that way for a while, the eyes adapt to the focus at that distance. So when you take a break and try to see at far again you would notice the blur for a while until it clears out, or rather you adapt for that distance again.. So in other to avoid this, you need to observe a 20-20 rule when you use your phone or a computer. This means that as you stare at your phone, after a while just shift your gaze toward something far away for a while, then back to your phone. This would help reduce the strain you experience. Thank you |

Nyerhovwo101: “Itchy eyes” is a sign that something is going on in your eyes, and its been persistent.. so it’s probably an allergic response to something you have been exposed to. So there are different medications to sooth your problem and you might have to keep using it for as long as you’re exposed to that which youre allergic to. So i advise you re-visit an eye care specialist close to you for closer examination and management. Thank you |

SEGLIZ: From about 45years and above, alot of people experience something called “presbyopia” this means that the eyes are loosing their ability to adapt to focusing properly at near. This is completely natural so you dont need to worry.. you just need glasses to help you see properly at near. Then for the itching, have you used any drugs before? And how long has it been itching you? |
Re: Do You Have Any Problems With Your Eye? by Lekan1o1: 11:49am On Nov 07, 2018 |
Drtimon: OK thank u very much doctor. So this will stop? When I continue practicing this? |
Re: Do You Have Any Problems With Your Eye? by Drtimon(m): 12:02pm On Nov 07, 2018 |
Lekan1o1: Yes it should, but if it persists- it then means that you have an underlying error of refraction so, you would have to visit an eye clinic to be refracted and given glasses for a clearer view 1 Like |

please doctor I have a problem with my eye sight. when watching tv, I don't see the faces of the actors unless I go really close. and if I don't I close my eyes a bit before I can see well. even while reading newsline on tv. pls respond. thanks |
Re: Do You Have Any Problems With Your Eye? by Drtimon(m): 4:46pm On Nov 07, 2018 |
Mikefrik: Hi, I get the picture you have tried to paint here; and its very likely something called a “refractive error”. You would have to visit an eye care specialist for refraction so that an appropriate lens power can be sorted out for you, to enable you see those prints clearer.. for more information on refractive errors, you can visit my blog www.asktimon.com |
Re: Do You Have Any Problems With Your Eye? by Nobody: 5:33pm On Nov 07, 2018 |
Drtimon:I have used different medications and no relief, even d last specialist I met at a general hospital said I had to use glasses if d treatment he gives to me does not work and I am not comfortable with the use of glasses |
Re: Do You Have Any Problems With Your Eye? by Drtimon(m): 5:49pm On Nov 07, 2018 |
Nyerhovwo101: Since drugs have not solved your problem, it then means that theres an underlying refractive error that needs correcting with the help of lenses, its like i said earlier.. itching is a sign that something is going on with the eyes. Its more like the eyes way of crying out for help. So please adhere to the doctors advice in other to attain relief. This would help you alot both physically and emotionally. |
Re: Do You Have Any Problems With Your Eye? by Nobody: 7:26pm On Nov 07, 2018 |
Drtimon:forgive my ignorance, I actually thought lenses were meant for correction of short and long eye sight |
Re: Do You Have Any Problems With Your Eye? by Drtimon(m): 8:44pm On Nov 07, 2018 |
Nyerhovwo101: Thats okay, im at your service |
Re: Do You Have Any Problems With Your Eye? by Nobody: 9:52pm On Nov 07, 2018 |
Drtimon:thanks....but how long do you think I may likely use d lense before d itching stop? |
Re: Do You Have Any Problems With Your Eye? by Drtimon(m): 10:16pm On Nov 07, 2018 |
Nyerhovwo101: For as long as a month, the itching would have subsided, so deciding not to wear the glasses anymore wouldn't favour you much because you would realize that your vision is evidently better with the glasses on than off. So if you insist on taking the glasses off, after a while the eyes would cry for help again. So try to keep the glasses on |

Drtimon: OK thank u sir |
Re: Do You Have Any Problems With Your Eye? by Lekan1o1: 2:02pm On Nov 10, 2018 |
Drtimon: Pls there is debate I want clarify, Is the use of glasses just to correct eyes sight issues which u can later stop using it.? or is it meant to be put on as as u live. |
Re: Do You Have Any Problems With Your Eye? by Drtimon(m): 9:33pm On Nov 10, 2018 |
Lekan1o1: Think of prescription glasses as a medium to enable you see the world better than you had. I don't like to use the word “correct” because that would mean that the glasses are a permanent cure. The glasses help to compensate for the error thats causing you not to see clearly. “Cure” (neutrality) is mostly achieved amongst children of 8yrs or less.. but individuals who are older are less likely to attain neutrality, so you would have to stick to the glasses for better vision 1 Like |

Drtimon: OK thanks for the explanation. |

Hello Sir. I have these frustrating feelings of something pinching me in my eye. I visited an eye clinic where I was given: Diclofenac eyedrop, with Mastguard eyedrop, and Benacycline eye oilment to apply to the eye. Have been on these medications for 3days now, and no changes, please help. I also notice my eye are too sensitive to air. If I walk in a =n environment when air is blowing much, it kind of pepper me |

Hello I have been suffering this eye problem for over 22yrs now, the thing comes like season especially during dry season ,my eyes itching me ,red eyes and something like shadow covering my eyes , |
Re: Do You Have Any Problems With Your Eye? by Omihanifa: 1:34pm On Nov 18, 2018 |
Hello doctor please my own situation is that when I expose my eyes to light ( sunlight, electric bulb and reflections) my eyes becomes watery and turns red, also sometimes I always feel as if my eyelash is pinching my eyeballs. Or as if there are foreign objects in my eyes please kind help thanks |
Re: Do You Have Any Problems With Your Eye? by Drtimon(m): 9:27am On Nov 20, 2018 |
unclefresh: For the dry season itching & red eyes, its either an allergic conjunctivitis or a condition called dry eye syndrome. These conditions appear prominently in dry weather conditions with the sign and symptoms you have provided so you would have to see an eye doctor near you to be able to acertain which one it is before treatment can commence. As for the shadow that blocks your vision, you would have to see an eye doctor in person so that they can use an equipment to look into your eye to see if there are any irregularities |
Re: Do You Have Any Problems With Your Eye? by Drtimon(m): 9:33am On Nov 20, 2018 |
Omihanifa: Okay I understand what youre going through i have seen alot of cases like this.. all you have to do is to get an anti reflective transition lens to protect your eyes from direct exposure to the light. What you have is most likely "photophobia" Then as for the lashes, the condition is called trichiasis. Some of Your lashes are misdirected so they would cause a huge disturbance. You need to visit an optometrist near you, so that measures would be taken to remove the misdirected lashes, and provide you with comfort |
