Why does my closed eye cause pain and redness?

Patient's Query

When eye is close pain increase and redness develop

Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

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.

What can I do if my eyes gets red

Other | 25

Red eyes are common and can happen for many reasons, like a stuffy nose, dust, tiredness, or chlorine. Sometimes, conditions like arrhythmia or long periods of staring at screens can also cause red eyes. To help, you can use artificial tears to keep your eyes moist. If your eyes still feel irritated, taking a break and resting them is a good idea.

Male | 21

The hospital will do some tests to find out if you are a proper candidate for the procedure. They will check your eye health, thickness, and shape. For the record, you are 21, wear glasses, and are preparing for exams - you are in a good age group. If they think laser treatment is a good option for you, it can lessen the extent to which you need glasses. Visit an opthalmologist for tests.

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.

Female | 24

 It seems like you may be in some health problem, which is likely the result of several factors, including stress, muscle tension, or even some internal problems. The necessary initial step is to identify the root cause of your problem by a thorough evaluation so that the symptoms can be addressed effectively. I would suggest that you come to our center for a full medical check-up which will help us clarify what is causing the problems as well as provide you with the appropriate treatment options.

Iam 27 year i have cataract problem of 2 year

Male | 27

Cataracts are eye conditions that cause cloudy vision, making it hard to see clearly. People with cataracts may notice that objects appear blurry, colors are less vibrant, and vision at night is more challenging. Cataracts typically develop when the lens in your eye becomes cloudy, often due to aging or other health issues. The most effective treatment is surgery, where the cloudy lens is replaced with a clear artificial one.
