I have been using Getamincin eye drop ;for red eye and itchy, which is also anti-bacteria drug and it works for me. What i need now is to tell me drug to use for permanet cure. Give me your email please.
the drug u mentioned are drugs 4 bacteria infection,and itchy eye and red eyes can't be bacterial infection if there is no discharge. It can possibly due to allergic reactions if no refractive error is present..u can get sparsallerg,ivycrom or antallerge eye drop and use 2drops 3x daily for 28days...tanx

Dear doc, (dis ur name tho) I am short sighted (can't see far objects clearly), I don't use glasses, my eye are very itchy and it produces...ehm those whitish or milkish...ehm mucor(if dats d name) frequently which made me form a habit of putting my hands in d eye always tryna remove em. Wot do I do to stop d itchiness and frequent mucor production and also make it whiter. Thanks
good day,difficulty seeing distance objects is mainly cause by refractive error and in some cases pathology..I wil advise u 2 visit an eye clinic 4 proper diagnosis and treatment plan..the discharge is as a result of infections and I wil advise u not 2 use ur hands 2 remove it anymore,hence,try use a clean tissue or handkerchief and always wash ur eyes after touching ur eyes,so as not 2 spread it 2 oda persons..u can get gentamycin or chloramphenicol eye drop 4 the main time and use 2drops 3x daily b4 visiting an eye clinic...tanx

I has this problem since my tender age. When am in university, if I don't seat on from roll I can't seat anything written on the board. Before I can see I need to close my eyes small.
And my major problem is that I don't see most things on television. Example I only dictate people playing match with their jersey. I don't see the names neither do I see the time. I always ask my friends what time is it on tv.
Also if I try forcing my eyes to see I get discharge. My eyes itch me like everyday.
Most times I have tried visiting eye clinics but crown scares me away.
please the earlier the better..I wil advise u 2 visit the nearest eye clinic cos it shows u re short sighted which may be caused by myopia or astigmatism..I wil advise u 2 quikly go 4 eye check so as to prevent amblyopia I.e loss of function of an organ thereby resisting treatment...the discharge is as a result of microbial infections and u nid antimicrobial agents 2 take care of that..pls visit an eye clinic as soon as possible...I promise u u wil be apy u did...tanx

mecussey:
Op...I started seeing floaters in my eyes then I went for examination. The 1st doc said I have glacouma, the second one said it's ocular pressure which may lead to glaucoma if left untreated. So i took treatments which reduced the pressure from 29 to 16 and the pressure never went up again even after stopping the drugs for 6 months. Am I still at risk? ..and which of the doctors were correct. I understand that i have to be going for regular eye examination but how often? Thank you for this thread.
increase in intraocular pressure is different 4rm galucoma,although increase IOP is a risk factor for glaucoma..glaucoma is said to be present if there is cupping of the optic disc,and if the patient has restricted visual field..so you don't av glaucoma if only the presure was confirmed 2 be high..wot u ve wil be ocular hypertension wil can lead 2 glaucoma if not immediately treated..so u nid 2 goin 4 routine eye examination 2 know if the presure is within the normal range...tanx

Gudday doctor!! Pls my dad is having an eye problem called glycoma and he's almst in d verge of losing his sight he can't even see clearly now even an image at close range,d hospitals he have went to hvnt provided a better solution to it..pls what's d better cure for it..or is dia any hospital u wil recomend..pls am waitn for ur urgent reply
glaucoma is the 2nd leading cause of blindness worldwide and it is hereditary and arises as a result of sustained increase in intraocular pressure..it affects the ganglion cells of the retina down 2 the optic nerve..glaucoma really has no cure but can be managed wen detected early..once someone is diagnosed of glaucoma,d person needs 2 be placed on life time drugs,as this will help to reduce or minimize the rate of damage to the ganglion cells..4urgery known as trabeculectomy is indicated if the anterior chamber is narrow,but dis can't bring about or restore the patient's vision..but if the patient sticks to his/her drugs and uses them regularly,the remaining vision can be preserved..pls he shud be urgently attended 2..tanx

Please I have a problem seeing far objects. Its been a long time the problem started. Also there is dis small yellow substance coming out of my eye area(not the inside of the eye, its the flesh from where the lower eye lashes grow) what could that be. Lastly if I stare for a long time into my. Fone, my eyes wil start aching. Thanks.
from ur case history it shows u have problem seeing distant objects clearly,this is what causes the eyestrain u do experience cos your tend to contract your muscles in other to see distance objects clearly..u nid visit an eye clinic 4 a proper diagnosis and the required treatment shud be given to u..for the discharge,does it look sticky or watery,and does ur lids gum 2geda wen u wake up in d morning or luks crusty?

pain in the eyes can be caused by diff problems..but the most common is refractive error I.e not able to see far or near objects clearly..the pain arises due to the contraction of the eye's muscles in other for image 2 be formed on the macular..angle closure glaucoma also causes severe pain and reduction in vision..I wil advise u to visit an eye clinic 4 proper diagnosis and treatment

None! cry

Pls how do i go about the vitamin A therapy or what treatment would u recommend?
there has been no known lastingtreatment 4 RP but proper management is the key to preventing blindness.. The disease is as a result of genetic disorder and it is hereditary. It affects the peripheral area of the retina were the rod cells are abundant thereby bringing abt night blindness and inability 2 see well in the dark..the only known supplement required is vitamin A therapy and other anti- oxidant drugs like maxivision etc as this contains carotenoids and other anti oxidant..as for how 2 go about it,a daily dosage of 15000IU of vit.A is needed. please try visit ur eye doctor, cos he is in the right position 2 continue with the management of your case.please advise ur siblings and family members to always have a routine eye check and RP screening cos this disease is familial...tanx

goodevening doc , thnx a lot for ur help. i m short sighted nd i use a concave lens but my problem is that is already upto 5yrs since i started using my lens yet no improvement. day and day is just like its getting worse. please i dont know what to do and d problem is that i cant view distant objects without it. secondly whenever i wear i for long especially in d classroom during classes or during postings in d clinic, it gives me this scary headache in he left eye that makes me so uncomfortable. this is my HPC, thanks in advance for ur advise.
there are basically different types of myopia each with its own causes n prognosis, hence,it usually nt compulsory dere mus be a change in ur refractive status after using d glasses 4 a while.I wil like 2 know the actual power of ur prescription.5years is realy too long 4 u 2 ve stayed without visiting an eye clinic...if u have high myopia,u ought 2 be visiting an eye clinic @ least every six mnths...I belive ur refractive status nids 2 be reviewed,dats y u experiencing eyestrains and headache cos ur glasses is no more compensating 4 ur refractive error..tanx

Ewoma45:
Morning docs,last year I was advised by a friend to go for eye test.was diagnosed with astigmatism and long sightedness.was given glasses bt they were tinted nd whenever I take them off I have these feeling as if d muscles in my eye re contracting. Wanted to knw if dat feeling is normal?
do u feel uncomfortable or feel and sees better with the glasses? Wot the glasses does is that it heps to relax the muscles of ur eyes,thereby preventing u 4rm experiencing eyestrains and headache...so whenever u take off ur glasses,the eyes muscles therefore tends 2 contract back,and try 2 adjust back to ur normal refractive status,that's y u might experience some kind of blurry vision 4 some few seconds after taking off ur glasses...the trut is dat u nid 2 always wear ur glasses until u re told 2 stop by ur eye doctor..the glasses gives u the best corrected vision,prevents u 4rm having eyestrain and oda symptoms associated wit astigmatism
