Hello Subharao jI,

The following precautions are recommended post-cataract surgery:

  • Be gentle with your eye and avoid touching, rubbing, or pressing on the operated eye to prevent irritation or infection.

  • Take the prescribed eye drops and medications as directed by your doctor to prevent infection and reduce inflammation.

  • Do not let water enter the operated eye while washing your face, showering, or swimming for at least 2-4 weeks. This helps avoid infections.

  • Use an eye shield or sunglasses when sleeping and when outdoors to protect the eye from dust, wind, and sunlight.

  • Refrain from heavy lifting, bending over, or any physical activity that could increase pressure in the eye for at least one month.

  • Avoid driving, especially at night, until your doctor confirms that your vision has stabilized and that you are safe to drive.

  • Take frequent breaks if you need to use a computer or smartphone, as prolonged screen time can cause eye strain.

  • Attend all follow-up appointments with your ophthalmologist to monitor healing and detect any complications early.

  • Seek immediate medical attention if you experience any sudden vision loss, eye pain, redness, or discharge.

Hello Ehtasham Ji,

We are sorry to hear about the vision loss in your left eye.

Given the complete vision loss in your left eye, it is recommended to consult an eye specialist as soon as possible for a thorough examination. They may suggest tests like optical coherence tomography (OCT) or fundus examination to determine the cause and potential treatment options.

Hello Anushya Ji,

To treat a chalazion or stye, start with warm compresses on the affected area for 10-15 minutes, several times a day—this can help reduce swelling and promote drainage. Gently massaging after the compress may also aid drainage. Avoid squeezing a stye, as this can spread infection. Over-the-counter antibiotic ointments or lubricating eye drops can help. If symptoms persist, consult an ophthalmologist; they may recommend further treatment like drainage or medication.

For specialist help, HexaHealth can connect you with an experienced ophthalmologist.

Hello Noman,

The cost of ptosis surgery in India starts from ₹25,000 and can vary widely based on multiple factors, such as:

  • Severity of Eyelid Ptosis: More severe cases may require complex procedures, affecting the cost.
  • Correction of Lower and Upper Lid: If both lids need correction, it could increase the expenses.
  • Doctor’s Fee: Surgeons with specialized expertise may charge higher fees.
  • Hospital Expenses: The hospital's location and reputation can impact overall costs.
  • Financial aspects like medical insurance, EMI or cash etc.

Consulting with an eye specialist will provide a clearer estimate tailored to your specific needs.

Hello Anil Ji,

Reduced vision in one eye, especially if it's been happening for 10 days, can be due to several reasons. Some possible causes include:

Common Causes:

  1. Refractive Error: A sudden vision change could be due to issues like myopia (nearsightedness) or astigmatism, and she may need spectacles.
  2. Cataract: At the age of 40, early signs of cataracts can sometimes cause blurred or reduced vision.
  3. Retinal Issues: Conditions like retinal detachment or macular degeneration can lead to sudden vision changes in one eye.
  4. Glaucoma: Increased eye pressure may cause gradual vision loss and can be more noticeable in one eye.

Next Steps:

She should consult an ophthalmologist (eye specialist) immediately to determine the exact cause and start the appropriate treatment.

You can also connect with HexaHealth for guidance and to find the best eye specialists in your area.

नमस्ते नवनीत जी,

आपकी समस्या को समझते हुए, बिना चश्मे के धुंधला या साफ़ न दिखना आमतौर पर दृष्टि से संबंधित समस्याओं जैसे कि मायोपिया (दूर की नजर कमजोर होना) या हाइपरमेट्रोपिया (पास की नजर कमजोर होना) का संकेत हो सकता है। कुछ मामलों में यह आंखों में मोतियाबिंद या रेटिना से जुड़ी समस्याओं का भी संकेत हो सकता है।

आपको सलाह दी जाती है कि आप एक नेत्र चिकित्सक से परामर्श लें, ताकि आपकी दृष्टि की पूरी जांच की जा सके और सही उपचार या चश्मे का नंबर दिया जा सके। यदि आप चाहें तो हमारे प्लेटफॉर्म के जरिए विशेषज्ञ से अपॉइंटमेंट बुक कर सकते हैं।

Hello Gagan,

Door ki nazar kamzor hai? Yeh common problem hai, par chinta mat kijiye. Aap apne aas paas ke doctors se milke apni najar ka test karva sakte hain aur sahi treatment ke liye salah le sakte hain. Kuch common treatment options mein LASIK aur ICL surgery shamil hain:

  1. LASIK Surgery: Ye ek popular surgical procedure hai jo refractive errors ko thik karta hai, jaise ki nearsightedness, farsightedness, aur astigmatism. Isme laser ka istemal hota hai cornea ko reshape karne ke liye, jisse aapki najar mein sudhar hota hai.
  2. ICL Surgery (Implantable Collamer Lens): ICL surgery mein ek micro-thin lens aapki eye ke ander implant kiya jata hai, jo aapki existing lens ke samne fit hota hai aur aapki najar ko thik karta hai. Ye surgery un logo ke liye bhi faydemand hai jo LASIK ke liye eligible nahi hote.

In dono surgeries mein se kaunsa treatment aapke liye sahi hai, iske liye ek eye specialist se consult karna zaruri hai. Unki salah ke adhar par aapko behtar aur personalised treatment mil sakega.

Adhik jaankari ke liye HexaHealth se sampark karein.

Dear Chand Kiran,

Nazar kamjor ho sakti hai, par iska ilaj ho sakta hai. Sabse pehle, aankhon ka checkup karwana zaroori hai ek ankhon specialist (ophthalmologist) se. Wo aapki nazar ko test karenge aur zarurat padne par chashme ya contact lenses ki salah denge. Agar chashma ya contact lenses se fayda na ho, toh surgical options jaise ki laser surgery ya phacoemulsification ke baare mein bhi vichar kiya ja sakta hai. Saath hi, swasth lifestyle maintain karna bhi zaroori hai jismein sehatmand khana khana, jo ki vitamin A se bhara ho, regular aankhon ke vyayam aur screen time kam karna shamil hai. Yaad rakhiye, samay par ilaj aur sahi dekhbhal se nazar kamjor hone ki samasya ka samadhan sambhav hai.
