Answered by Samruddhi Bhartiya

While we do not provide such treatments ourselves, but you can refer this page to find doctors who will provide treatment with the best possible outcome - Ophthalmologists in India.

 

On our end however, we feel that it's our responsibility to educate you on some important aspects related to it:

  • Side effects include:
    • Your eyes being itchy, gritty, and watery.
    • Your eyes burning and aching.
    • Blurred vision.
  • Be cautious of the risks that can ensue:
    • Deteriorated vision quality.
    • Correction surgeries due to removal of too little or too much of tissues during surgery.
    • Vision loss and/or dry eyes.
    • Vision going back to how it was pre-surgery.
  • You are an eligible candidate for this treatment if you:
    • Don't have dry eyes, eye infection, retinal issues, large pupils, thin cornea, etc.
    • Have poor vision (as long as it's not caused by age-related changes/medications/hormonal changes).
    • Have extreme nearsightedness.
    • Don't have an autoimmune disorder or weakened immune system.
  • Some pre-treatment measures to keep in mind:
    • Avoid eye makeup and eye lenses few weeks before surgery, use glasses instead (doctor will inform).
    • Inform surgeon of your medical history/family history/supplements & medications.
  • Post-treatment care:
    • Use medications and eye drops as advised by the surgeon.
    • Avoid certain activities which could strain your eyes (doctor will inform).
  • Rough estimate of the treatment cost (can vary depending on various factors):
    • Rs. 20,000 to Rs. 1,00,000.

Doctor, I am 18 year old male, having problem in eye of change in it's power to -0.25D. I wear glasses too.I am also eye exercises and routines which can bring my eye power to normal.I am asking how much time should mobile screen to be limited per day to keep my eye safe on the above report?

Male | 18

Your eyesight has changed a bit with a measurement of -0.25D. This might make your vision less clear and give you sore eyes or a headache. If you spend lots of time looking at screens (like phones), these symptoms could get worse than they already are. To protect your sight, attempt to keep screen use down to 2 hours everyday maximum and take breaks every 20 minutes or so where you focus on something in the distance. You should still wear your glasses as directed by the optician as well.

Want to know about retina treatment

Male | 50

The retina is a thin film of tissue making the inner surface of your eye that transmits the images outside to your brain. Problems with the retina can lead to serious vision issues. Signs of the problem with the retina you might get are blurred vision, flashes of light that come out of nowhere, and the perception of something that is not there in your field of vision. Causes can range from aging to serious conditions like diabetes. In the case of treatment, the restoration of vision is usually done by a surgical operation on the damaged retina.

Can an iphone flashlight damage my eyes? I have myopia and that's ok, but since august now I have problems with my vision and I'm really scared. I have dermatillomania (skin picking) and since 5 years now I'm watching my skin really close on my face in the mirror. I have crisis that can last few hours. Sometimes, I've used my iPhone flashlight close to my eyes side to the mirror to watch my skin. I wasn't staring directly at the flashlight but it was close to my eyes and my field of vision. Now I'm scared that I've damaged my vision with the flashlight used a lot of times and long period of time close to my eyes

Female | 21

Noting that using the flashlight of your iPhone near your eyes is not a desirable situation, it is highly unlikely to be the cause of any significant damage to your vision. Being exposed to bright light can bring about temporary discomfort or glare; however, it is usually not the cause of long-term damage. Also, the visual impairments that you noticed lately can be brought by other reasons like eye distress and stress. At the same time, remember that your eyes should not be looked at very closely without a break. I think you should go and see an eye specialist to get your vision checked and also to talk about the symptoms You feel.

I am traveling outside of the United States, and I have the following symptoms: low grade fever, sore throat, congestion, and partial blind spots & floaters in both eyes. I wanted to check in to see if I need to seek immediate medical attention. I should note that I have a history of migraines, and have been experiencing them on and off while traveling.

Female | 42

It might be a good idea to seek medical attention since you're experiencing low fever, sore throat, etc.. Given your history of migraines, these symptoms could have various causes. If your symptoms are severe, worsening, or causing significant distress, it's advisable to seek medical help promptly.
