If I don't meet eye doc,can my vision deteriorate? Also how much will it cost for seeing one?
of course but not necessarily due to the tropia but other eye conditions that you could be unaware of. as for the cost to see one, it varies but you could check in any around u to find out the cost.

It's been From childhood n have never visited eye doc,will he tell the glasses to use or what? Cos I know patching can't work anymore
you are right on this, not much can be done at this point . You could get a good shade but ensure it doesnt reduce your visual functioning. NEvertheless, you still have to visit ur eye doc from time to time to maintain your vision

how long has the hypertropia been? well as regards your question, so long as it doesnt reduce your visual functioning, it's ok but i would recommend you visit your eye doc if you havent done that since you had the tropia.

Hey DOC optm n drsteroid, I've hypertropia in my left eye,can I get a doctor report for wearing dark eye glasses) Cos most schools don't allow student wear dark glasses in class. Also can you suggest the type of eye glass I can use?
well, getting a doctors report on that might not hold as the Dark shades aint to improve your visual function but rather for the psychological boost it may give as i understand it rubs off on your self esteem. The Nigerian education system doesn't care about that. EVen if you get a doctor's report on that, it might not be considered

And my Visual Acuity keeps reducing the eyeglass i renewed 3 months ago doesn't have the focusing power i had when i got it i know it's because i work on digital devices a lot. Even when the eyes aches as a result of strain i keep on working just to finish the task at times the eye would become red after looking at screen for hours.

And i do see circle around lights at night but this only happens if i strain the eyes for hours during the day. On a normal day without straining the eyes i don't see those round ring.
does your eye feel dry, peppery , do u feel there re particles in your eyes ?

My IOP was measured today and the Opthamologist said it is normal. She gave me another appointment for next week Wednesday she said she wants to do something called ".......scopy" that scopy was the only thing i heard at the end of the word. I asked her if a glaucoma diagnosis has been confirmed she said she can't say that she has to see her consultant.
ok just be patient with them and see what they come up with

Any amount below 10k for both the test and eye glasses will be good
sorry i do no think that amount would cover for consult, test and the lens type you intend doing. I'm not sure you'll get it done in a private clinic for that amount. You should use lagos university teaching hospital or the state hospital lasuth but up your budget a bit more or settle for normal lenses. You could use google map to find your way there

Doc good afternoon,
I was adviced to get anti-reflective glasses.
I just want to know if you can recommend an affordable hospital(govt or private) to do an eye test get and get the glasses in Lagos.
what's your budget like ? Affordability is relative but govt hospitals are cheaper if you would wanna try Luth

Why does far letters get blurry to me when I'm far from it? Letters on TV gets blurry when I'm far from the TV and people faces also get burry when I'm far from them.

What could be causing this and what's the treatment. I'm 32 and press phone a lot.


Note: I have never used glasses all my life.
Thanks.
you'll likely be needing glasses this time around. most likely you re having a refractive error

Bro wat if it was a gun pointed at the police?
What should be the option for them?
this isnt the case here

Explorers:
How we comprehend sometimes differs, some does from behind or underneath.

What the guy did was wrong, you don't struggle or argue with these cops. Just do as they they say most especially if you're coloured.

He wrestled, grabbed officers teasers, that's wrong.

Still, shooting him dead is not the next option. The teaser he pointed at them can't kill them.

Ive see many videos of white dudes, resisting arrest, struggling/wrestling/punching officers.

One of the videos i attached here, one dude fought and overpowered two officers, he grabbed their guns and drove away their ford. Another one attacked officers with axe.

They don't shoot them most times, rather, they call for backup.

A black guy was shot in the chest early this year threatening officers with just a rubber bat.

They shot one white guy holding a gun, but after warning and begging him for almost 30mins with squad of cops.


See these videos:

Bro what the police did is called act of defence!
It's not an intentional killings as the explorers article depicted.
shooting to kill when there isnt threat to life isnt an act of self defence to a cop. Like i stated earlier that they had other options nd the use of lethal force wasnt necessary

Imagine what you said ?
A drunken man with a weapon try to escape the police by pointing the weapon at them.
After punching the same police on his face.
But before I move on ..........HOW U TAKE KNOW WHATS ON HIS MIND?

the question here is what weapon ? A taser, that isnt lethal .

THE CURSES I'VE COLLECTED TODAY IS ENOUGH TO MAKE A WEAK MIND THINK ABOUT SUICIDE.

THEY CAN CRY ALL THEY WANT. THE TRUTH OF THIS CASE IS THAT THIS DEAD MAN CAUSED HIS OWN PROBLEMS. IF YOU ATTEMPT TO WRESTLE THE POLICE LIKE THAT IN ALMOST ANY COUNTRY, YOU HAVE YOURSELF TO BLAME IF YOU'RE SHOT.
how come you are not condeming the unprofessional act of the police in killing an unarmed man but rather blaming the man for being killed ? This is so so wrong . If it were an untrained man holding the gun and doing this, probably we could have attributed it to impulsive firing but here is a professional who has been trained on how to respond in different situations and decides to act this way nd u see nothing wrong but rather blame the victim ? your judgement is very flawed

rubbish. The guy was intoxicated , u do not expect his actions from best judgements. He pointed the taser at the officer while running not cos he intended to harm d officer but rather give him opportunity to escape. The officers had several options nd using of lethal force shouldnt be one. Even if they lost him in the chase, they could hv been able to have him arrested some other time. they had his face on cam, they could hv gotten info from his vehicle reg details or docs found therein to pick him up someother time . There's no justification for the killing

WAS FLOYD ARMED?

THIS GUY EVEN SEIZED A TASER FROM THE POLICE AND USED IT DURING THE CHASE. WHAT IF HE HAD A GUN?

I'M NOT SUPPORTING THE POLICE, BUT YOU SEE, POLICE BRUTALITY EXISTS IN MANY COUNTRIES. THE ONLY WAY TO KEEP YOUR LIFE IS TO NOT GIVE THEM A REASON TO TAKE IT FROM YOU.

THIS MAN GAVE THEM REASONS:
1. WRESTLED TWO OFFICERS
2. SIEZED A TASER
3. USED IT ON AN OFFICER. MEANING IF HE HAD A GUN HE'D HAVE KILLED SOMEONE

ABEG FORGET THIS STORY. MENTION ME WHEN THE POLICEMAN GOES TO JAIL.
did u watch the video posted ? I'll like to ask what his offence was that warrants his arrest ? he wasnt driving though intoxicated . is being drunken an offence? Taeser wasnt going to be lethal even if he made any attempt at using it, such doesnt justify responding with a lethal force and delibrately firing multiple times with the intention to kill. ur perspective about this is so so wrong on every sides.. If the likes of martin luther had chosen this path of cowardice as u re reconmending, black Americans would hv yet been slaves

Hi drsteroid, optm

Should I be worried?

Whenever I want to use other people's phone the brightness use to be too much for me even when it is okay for everyone.

Initially this was not the case.
some persons for no known reasons re very uncomfortable around lights . well there are glasses made to help people with such issues. if you havent had an eye exam, just make out time for it as one cannot really tell if the eyes are healthy until after having it examined .

isaacsegun:
1. I will make sure we have robust national Data base for every citizen to be captured. I will do this in order to enhance security architecture of the nation, so that when a crime is committed by individual or group of people, only their finger print will fixed them out.

2. The main hindrance to our national development is just that the country was designed to fail from inception. So restructuring is a sure bet for me. I will make sure that each state have control over their resources while few of what they make will be remitted to the coffer of the central government.

3. Our constitution have a lot of loop holes that give room to corruption. I will make sure the constitution is overhauled. Nigeria as a country will have a new constitution where their will be law that prescribed a severe punishement for law breakers, corrupt politicians and judges.

4. I will improve the education sector and health sector.
these are very beautiful points in addition to these, i'll cut down on the cost of governance and make political positions less attractive ;so going for the positions would be because of ur passion to serve nd not for enrichment
