Hello drsteriod.

I'm 35 and i'v been wearing glasses since 2001. i'm myopic, by that i mean i don't need glasses to read or write but i need glasses to drive. Since february this year i'v been having dual vision when i use glasses (i mean i see double). i'v changed glasses about 3 times since then but none is good enough. is it age or i'm not getting d right test & glasses. what causes dual vision?

By d way thank you 4 ur service of love.

Hello docs,.my eyes do itch me, feels dizzy even when just awake from sleep, mostly I feel a foreign object in the eyes. these mostly occur whenever I walk under the sun or when working on my Pc and phone. I visited an eye clinic some days ago, the doctor told me there is a growth in my eyes termed it PTERYGIUM. An eye drop to be used within a month was recommended, Sunshade was also recommended as this as I was told will prevent the penetration of Ultraviolet rays. Since then I have been apprehensive, Don't know if clear sunglasses also prevents UV rays Co's I Don't like the coloured ones.
Thanks for your response.

I am an Eye doctor, I discovered through clinical experience that most Patients don't really know about some basic things and problems affecting the eyesn and these has led to simple eye problems being seen as complicated and frightening to most patients and they don't really know how to go about it. There are some eye problems that are hereditary,which requires normal routine eye examinations but due to ignorance most patients tend to lose their sight to eye problems that could have been prevented. I want to use this opportunity to enlighten us and provide solutions to problems affecting the eyes,in line with WHO Vision 2020-Right to sight for all, so all questions concerning the eyes are welcomed

I've been having this issue for sometimes I notice I shed tears anytime I'm in α place that's fully lit at times during the day when I try to focus on object that are far from me
