Dry eye syndrome happens when your eyes don’t have the moisture/tears they need to work properly.

This can happen because the eyes don’t make enough tears or if the tears your eyes do make don’t do a good enough job of keeping the eyes wet.

Symptoms of dry eye syndrome:

• red eyes
• blurry vision
• sensitivity to light

Allopathic Over-the-counter (OTC) eye drops are often enough to relief dry eye syndrome but not treat tear duct plugs permanently.

Lifestyle changes, such as using a humidifier and drinking enough water, can also be beneficial.

2. Infections

Eye infections can cause eye pain, redness, and itching depends on the type of infection and severity.

Common eye infections include:

• Conjunctivitis: Conjunctivitis is a bacterial or viral infection commonly known as “pink eye” that causes eye redness, itching, lachrymation/watering, and discharge. It is contagious and very easy spread to others.
• Keratitis: Keratitis happens when cornea (the see-through tissue at the front of your eyeball) gets infected or injured. It causes eye redness, eye pain, and blurred vision. Keratitis requires urgent medical attention because it can lead to vision loss if it’s not treated.
• Endophthalmitis: Endophthalmitis is a severe eye infection inside your eyeball that causes intense eye pain, eye swelling, blurry vision, and eye discharge. This condition is a medical emergency — treatment with D Eye drops is usually needed quickly before vision loss starts to occur.

3. Allergies

Around 40 percent patients experience some kind of eye irritation that results from allergies to environmental irritants, like pollen, mold, animal dander, or air pollution like smoke, smog etc.

Some allergic reactions may only affect eyes, but many patients with allergies also experience a stuffy nose and other respiratory symptoms.

Allergy symptoms that can affect the eyes include:

• Itching
• Burning
• Redness
• Lacrimation/Watering

Allergies can be temporarily controlled with allopathic oral antihistamines or can be permanently treated with Homeopathic medication especially D Eye drops.

4. Contact lenses

Wearing contacts that are old, dirty, or the wrong prescription can also cause pain and burning.

Not cleaning your contact lenses correctly or wearing old contact lenses can both lead to a condition called contact lens-induced conjunctivitis (buildup dust or other external substances on your contact lenses).

Symptoms include:

• Itching
• Redness
• Blurred vision
• A feeling like something is in the eye
• Strands of mucus in the eye.

5. Nerve pain

Nerve pain can happen when the optic nerve, located behind the eye swells because of inflammation. This can cause severe pain in the back of the eye.

Nerve pain in the eye typically only affects one eye at a time.

Symptoms often include:

• Pain that’s worse when move the eye
• Vision loss in one eye
• Vision loss in one specific area, such as peripheral (side) vision or center vision
• Loss of ability to see colors (color blindness)
• Seeing flashing lights in the affected eye.

Allopathic doctors can only prescribe steroid drugs to help reduce the swelling and relieve pain and discomfort but those steroids cannot treat the cause of pain because in some cases, eye nerve pain is a symptom of another underlying condition such as multiple sclerosis, and here patient needs proper Homeopathic treatment not just relievers.

6. Chemical irritation

Irritated or damaged from exposure to any types of chemicals that are common in everyday life, such as:

• Soaps
• Shampoos
• Cleaning products
• Smoke (cigarettes, vaping devices, fireplaces, or wood smoke etc)
• Acid or alkali solutions
• Chlorine in pools or spas

Symptoms of chemical irritation include:

• Eye redness
• Eye pain
• Eye irritation
• Swelling of the eyelids
• Blurry vision
• Having difficulty keeping your eye open
• A feeling like something is in your eye
• Vision loss

Treatment for a chemical irritation should start with washing the substance out of eye (at home it’s better if wash with natural milk).

Then start treatment according to severity of the irritation.

You might not need treatment for mild irritation by substances like shampoo, soap etc.

7. Eye injuries

When an object strikes your eye or comes in direct contact with your eye, it can result in a scratch or injury to the surface of the eye called a corneal abrasion.

Symptoms of eye injuries can include:

• Eye pain
• Lacrimation/Watery eyes
• Eye redness
• A feeling like something is in your eye
• Sensitivity to light
• Headache

What to do in case of emergency

Wash your eyes with distilled water or luke warm water or its better if wash with natural milk immediately if any chemicals splash into them.

• your vision is changing
• you have eye pain
• your eyes are swollen
• you have eye discharge
• your eyes are crusting
• your eyelids are sticking together
• you’re seeing flashing lights, shadows, or other visual disturbances
• you have any eye symptoms that last longer than a week

Additionally, it’s important to seek emergency medical care if:

• your vision suddenly changes
• you have severe eye pain
