Why is my left upper eyelid twitching and smaller?

Patient's Query

i have eye twitching from more than a week now and my eye size is reduced left upper eye lid

Answered by Dr. Sumeet Agrawal

It sounds like you're having eye twitching and a smaller left upper eyelid. Eye twitching can happen due to stress, tiredness, or too much caffeine. A smaller eyelid might be a condition called ptosis. It can be caused by muscle weakness or nerve problems. Make sure to rest, reduce stress, and see an eye specialist for a proper diagnosis and treatment.

I have -7.5 eye sight In right eye and -3.75 eye sight in my left eye .am I eligible for pwd low vision category

Male | 24

Significant nearsightedness in both eyes is what you have in effect. This, though, can be a challenge, not the case for people who have disabilities, and may not necessarily be a reason for low vision. You may have symptoms such as blurry vision and struggle to see things at a distance. Genetic factors or eye shape can be some of the causes. Glasses or contact lenses can be used to correct the vision. Be sure to see an eye doctor for a thorough assessment and advice.

She has a eye pressure rate 26-27

Female | 15

An eye pressure between 26-27 is a bit higher than the normal. This can be the first indicator of a disorder named glaucoma. Nevertheless, these signs may be related to decreased vision, eye pain, or no symptoms. Excessive eye pressure is the cause of visual impairment; therefore, an eye examination is essential. The course of action generally includes using eye drops or surgery to reduce pressure levels and keep your sight safe.

I am 17 year old female. I noticed that I have a lump inside my eyelids on both eyes. It is painless, not swollen, it's colour is same as my skin colour. It's been for about 1 month and it is starting to get noticeable when I close my eyes.

Female | 17

You may have a common eye issue called a chalazion. A chalazion is a small lump in the eyelid. It happens when oil glands get blocked. Don't worry, chalazions often go away by themselves. Try warm compresses to help it heal faster. If it doesn't go away or gets bigger, see an eye doctor for treatment. Chalazions are not serious but can be annoying. The key is to be patient and keep doing the warm compresses. If it persists, an eye doctor can help with easy treatments.

hi iam 19 years old and my eye power is near -4 ,[minus 4] so can i do lasik eye surgery , i just want to remove my specis im wearing from past 6 years that time eye power was nearly -1.5 , every time its increasing ,, please let me know

Male | 19

There have been a lot of changes in your eyes over the past few years. Being nearsighted is having a power of -4, which can occur when the eyeball is too long. When trying to see things that are far away, this may lead to cloudy vision. If you’re wondering if it’s right for you at this moment, consult an eye surgeon about LASIK surgery. Before deciding on anything, they must perform a thorough examination of your eyes so they know what’s changed.

Mujhe dry eye ki problem hai

Male | 26

Tears keep eyes lubricated and moist. Sometimes, eyes don't make enough tears. This condition is called dry eye. You may experience feeling gritty objects in your eyes, or your vision becomes blurry. Causes include aging, prolonged screen usage, and certain medications. Helpful remedies: use artificial tear drops; take breaks from digital devices. But if symptoms persist, consult an eye specialist for further evaluation and management.

Low vision Thin optic nerve Eye pain headache

Male | 20

The reason you’re not able to see well may be that your optic nerve is thin. This could result in things appearing fuzzy or being hard to see. People with this issue might also feel pain around their eyes and get frequent headaches. Book an appointment with an eye specialist soon enough.

I have been staying up late for about a week and i started to notice that my vision started to be a little bit blur and that i cant focus is there anything that can be done for this to be corrected

Male | 15

Spending too much time looking at screens might result in eye strain and temporary loss of visual sharpness. In order to avoid negative impacts on vision, it is better to take breaks, change lighting and use the screens with the anti-reflective filter. For further treatment consult a eye specialist

iam 23 years old.. iam underline treatment of uviites since 6 months.. docter said to stop medicine after 6 months.. after stopping the medicine my eye was blur again.. what should i do now?

Female | 23

Your blurry vision is a symptom of uveitis relapse. Uveitis is the swelling of the eye's interior that leads to vision blurring, eye ache, and light sensitivity. Make an appointment with your eye specialist to restart the procedure and prevent further complications.

For the last three days my eyes are itching a lot and have become a little red too.

Female | 19

You might have eye allergies. Itchy, red, watery eyes often mean allergens like dust, pollen, or pet dander irritating them. Over-the-counter eye drops can help soothe the discomfort. Don't rub your eyes. Wash hands often and keep living spaces clean to reduce allergens. If symptoms persist, consult an eye care professional.

Hello, I'm 16 years old. Since yesterday at 12 PM Spanish time, I've been experiencing small spasms in my lower left eyelid. They feel like muscle contractions, usually sudden and occurring every 20 seconds, with about 10 to 15 contractions per spasm. I don't think there's any underlying issue as I don't have sleep problems, stress, haven't consumed caffeine or alcohol, and I don't feel tired. I would greatly appreciate the help; it's not painful but very annoying.

Male | 16

These spasms might happen because of stress, tiredness, or too much time spent staring at screens. Ensure that you rest your eyes, get enough sleep, and try massaging gently to relieve tension from the muscles around them. If they persist or get worse then it would be wise to talk with an eye specialist for more advice.

This issue is called myopia. It occurs when your eyeball is too long or the cornea is too curved. However, wearing glasses with the right treatment helps correct this. You need regular eye exams to check your vision.

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!

I am suffering from eye itching and burning sensation in and around eye. It usually happen with me every summer when dry air flows. The symptom resonates with allergic conjuctivitis. The skin below and aside eye become very itchy. When water from eye drop on this skin it create very harsh irritation. Please suggest medication. Right now I am using Lotepred LS drop.

Female | 50

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.

I have experienced shaky vision in the top as well the left corner of my left eye. This has happened 4 times so far in a span of 6 months. the most recent being yesterday (11/18/2023). it starts of with a dark/ blind spot in the centre of my eye/ vision so I can see like the peripheries of stuff but not the middle. Kind of like when you stare at the sun or a bulb then you get a dark spot in your vision for a bit. this then transitions into shaky vision in the top and left hand corner of my left eye only. the best way I can describe it is like when you look at the ground on a hot day or the sand in a desert when heat is rising so things look all wavy. that's what it looks like. then this lasts for 10-15 minutes then it goes away. please note that I never have headaches or migraines ever during these episodes. do you have an idea of what this could be?

Female | 26

BASED ON your SYMPTOMS, it's possible that you are experiencing OCULAR MIGRAINES...However, it's IMPORTANT to consult an EYE DOCTOR for a proper DIAGNOSIS and TREATMENT PLAN...Ocular migraines are not HARMFUL, but ruling out other causes is CRUCIAL...
