Why do my eyes hurt after washing with cold water?

Patient's Query

I am 19 years old and I have little bit pain in my eyes since 3 days ago. In the morning i washed my face with cold water and after that I'll get some relief but then again it stated pain in my eyes

Answered by Dr. Sumeet Agrawal

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.

It appears as if you might be having allergy-related conjunctivitis, a problem that occurs often in dry seasons. First, I suggest seeing an ophthalmologist who is an expert in all eye conditions. This will give him a chance to properly diagnose your condition and prescribe the right medication for you.

Optic atrophy due to be retinitis pigmentosa

As per my understanding, you want to know whether retinitis pigmentosa can lead to optic atrophy. Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is rare degenerative disease affecting the rod photoreceptors in the retina. The optic disc in RP may show optic atrophy, usually defined as a 'waxy pallor' of the disc, and is assumed to be a due of photoreceptor degeneration. Consult an ophthalmologist to rule out the cause in your case and to also guide you for further course of management. You can refer - Best Ophthalmologists in India, to sought consultation!

Sir unfortunatly I droped atropine eye drops in my eyes , now 2days went but I can't see properly beacuse of eyedrop

Male | 18

Atropine eye drops are used for specific eye conditions, but if they get into your eyes accidentally, you may experience blurred vision or other issues because atropine can over-dilate your pupils. This should return to normal as your eyes recover. Just wait a little, and if your vision doesn't clear up, you should see an eye specialist.

I am a 13-year-old girl, and one of my eyelids is drooping. This happened a few months ago and I thought it would change but it isn't. One eyelid is slightly droopier than the other. I'm not sure if it's Ptosis, but if so, what can I do to get it fixed whenever I look up one eye bends, and the other has a monolid. This also makes me unsymmetrical. My eyelid used to be the same, what can I do to fix this?

Female | 13

It is possible that you have ptosis, which is a drooping of the eyelid. It is important to see an ophthalmologist to accurately diagnose the condition and determine the most appropriate treatment.

Hello! I am an almost 30 year old female and for the past week I have trouble looking/focusing far away or when looking upwards. I always get dizzy and have the constant feeling that me eyes and their surrounding area have become more heavy, out of the sudden, and push my eyes downwards. I dont see blury or have double vision, I just refrain from looking upwards of faw away because I feel instantly dizzy. No medical history, no drugs. Can you please give me an insight as to what is happening;

Female | 30

Vertical heterophoria might be the reason for your dizziness and the heavy feeling around your eyes. It’s a misalignment issue that doesn’t cause blurred or double vision. To fix it, visit an eye doctor who can provide you with special prism eyeglasses. These glasses realign your eyes and relieve the symptoms.

I 28 years old. I have under gone Lasik eye surgery in Narayana Netralaya in 2019. But one of the eye didn't improve any eye sight...I went to them but they said the Par has removed and the number of both the eyes is zero.. but one eye I can't read and get blurred vision... Is there any way or is it necessary to undergo another surgery....please help me out in this issue

Male | 28

This is alarming because even in one of your eyes you still face an issue with clarity of vision after Lasik surgery. It is recommended that one consult an eye consultant doctor who conducts a full eye inspection. They take note of unique factors that cause blurred vision; these may be refractive errors or an underlying condition. This depends on what is found in the latter part of these surgical procedures so it may entail additional surgery if the findings are unfavorable, but proper professional assessment by an eye specialist would be better.

Femelle | 57

My suggestion is that you get an appointment with an ophthalmologist to have a look at the condition of your left eye. Complications do occur in a cataract surgery, though this procedure is very popular. The retina and choroid can detach from each other, and then cause permanent vision loss.

Some reasons for this include having an infection in one’s eye(s), getting hurt somehow or trouble with the blood vessels within them. While these may serve as signs indicating when things such as these are happening:

If you’re in pain then your eyes could be affected
Redness around the affected part could show a problem also exists there.
Being sensitive to light may be another issue altogether.

Please visit an eye doctor for further treatment.

You might notice changes in air pressure while flying after such a procedure. This could be uncomfortable or slow down the healing process. So, it’s better to postpone your trip until your eyes fully recover from surgery.

My eyes and body both are weak, perhaps this is not due to masturbation.

Male | 20

It's possible that your weak eyes and body might not be related to masturbation. Weak eyes could be due to issues like refractive errors or other eye conditions, while a weak body could be due to nutritional deficiencies, lack of exercise, or other health problems. It's best to consult an ophthalmologist for your eye issues and a general physician for your overall weakness to get a proper diagnosis and treatment.

Why my eyes are red and feeling weak and pain in all over body

Male | 21

You probably have the flu, a virus that spreads easily. Flu makes your eyes red and irritated. It causes weakness and body aches too. These comes from your immune system fighting the virus. Get lots of rest, drink fluids, and take pain meds. That can help you feel better soon.

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.

Stick to the label directions and don't rub your eyes. If the redness does not go away or becomes worse, please see an eye specialist as soon as possible.
