20-year-old female with blurred vision for a month - What to do?
Blurry eyesight can happen for different reasons. It could be from looking at computers for too long, or it could mean our eyes need more tears. We feel better when we use some eye drops. Blurry eyes could also mean bigger problems like diabetes. Diabetes makes sugar levels change in our bodies, which can affect our eyesight. Headaches called migraines can make vision blurry too. If your eyes stay blurry, you should see an eye specialist.

Do I Need Eyeglasses with 20/30 and 20/25 Vision?
Both your eyes are mostly fine. A corneal erosion can be dangerous and cause pain and sensitivity to light. Even if you have perfect eyesight, you may need to wear special glasses that will protect your eye from an even greater injury. These glasses can be used to stop more erosions from happening.

Can Amblyopia be Treated with Patching?
Lazy eye, also called amblyopia, makes one eye see poorly compared to the other. It leads to blurry eyesight, doubled vision, and trouble perceiving depth. Children frequently experience this condition. One treatment involves patching the stronger eye, forcing the weaker one to work harder. This may enhance vision in the lazy eye. If symptoms occur, seeking an eye doctor's advice becomes crucial for suitable treatment.

Can I donate blood after taking ashwagandha and Lasik?
Yes, you can give blood if you take ashwagandha every day and had Lasik surgery 3 years ago. The ashwagandha herb is safe and will not impact your blood donation. The Lasik eye operation you had some time ago also does not stop you from giving blood. Just make sure you feel good on the day you plan to donate blood.

Why sudden floaters and eye pain with normal eyes recently?
You may be suffering from posterior vitreous detachment (PVD). The reason for this is when the gel-like structure in your eye gradually departs from the retina thus causing floaters. The aching in the back of your eye could be the result of a process that is abrasive to the area. The good news is that PVD often gets better on its own. However, you need to see an eye doctor to confirm there are no complications.

Should I Wear My Specs Full Time?
According to your vision prescription, wearing spectacles every single day is the way to go. It enables your eyes to coordinate better and reduces the possibility of strain, which is particularly important when doing activities such as reading, writing, or using screens. The spectacle usage regularly you wear wouldn't make your eyesight worsen; it only allows you to see better. If you have any new symptoms or concerns, like headaches or blurry vision, reach out to an eye specialist.
