Why does my closed eye cause pain and redness?
There are a few potential reasons for this. It could be due to something as simple as dry eyes or eye strain, especially if you've been using screens a lot lately. On the other hand, it could also be related to an eye infection or inflammation. To be sure, it's best to have it checked by an eye specialist. In the meantime, you can try using artificial tears to see if that helps with the discomfort. Stay hydrated and try to take breaks from looking at screens too long.

Why do my eyes hurt after washing with cold water?
Eye issues can be challenging, especially when you are young. At 19, eye pain may seem unusual, but there could be simple reasons behind it. One reason may be dry eyes from cold water exposure. Another could be eye strain from too much screen time. Staring at screens for long hours can make your eyes tired and sore. To take care of your eyes, take breaks from screens often. Look away every 20 minutes for 20 seconds. Blink frequently to keep your eyes lubricated. Use eye drops for dry eyes to keep them moist and comfortable. If the pain persists, visit an eye doctor. An eye specialist can examine your eyes, identify the root cause, and provide proper treatment to relieve discomfort and prevent further issues.

What to do if I can't see distant objects at 25?
You're 25 years old and having trouble seeing distant objects. This could be due to a refractive error like myopia, commonly known as nearsightedness. It happens when your eye shape causes light to focus in front of the retina instead of on it, making distant objects appear blurry. This is a common issue that can often be corrected with glasses or contact lenses. I would recommend scheduling an eye exam with an ophthalmologist. They can assess your vision and prescribe the right corrective lenses if needed.

Should I continue airtopin eye drops for my daughter's myopia and astigmatism?
As your daughter's eyes are giving you some worries, especially with the right eye feeling blurry after using the Airtopin eye drops for myopia and astigmatism. Sometimes, when starting new eye drops, the eyes might need time to adjust, causing temporary blurriness. It could also be that the prescription strength needs adjusting. What I recommend is to pause the drops for now and reach out to a local ophthalmologist in the US. They can assess your daughter's eyes and maybe suggest a different treatment plan or adjust the current one. It's essential to ensure her eyes are comfortable and getting the right care.

Should I Get Anti-VEGF Injection for Choroidal Neovascularization in My Left Eye?
In your left eye, there is degenerative myopia with choroidal neovascularization, which has caused your vision to decline. In this condition, new blood vessels are growing in the wrong place. The best treatment option right now is an anti-VEGF injection, which can prevent these vessels from causing further damage to your eye. Meanwhile, your right eye has myopia, macular degeneration, and a tessellated fundus. Although your eyesight is not clear, regular use of eye drops can help control the situation to some extent.

Why is my eye smaller after infection treatment?
Aankh ka sujan aur laal hona aksar infection ya allergy ki wajah se hota hai. Aapne jo swelling aur redness mehsoos ki thi, wo iski nishaniyan hain. Aksar treatment se yeh symptoms theek ho jaate hain, lekin agar aankh ka size chhota hui hai, to yeh zaroori hai ki aap kisi ophthalmologist se milkar check-up karwaen. Aankhon ki sehat ke liye professional advice lena bahut ahm hota hai. Kuch ghar ke upay, jaise chamakdaar paani se dhona, bhi rahat de sakta hai.
