Patient's question:
I have been feeling eye pain recently, and it's especially easy for my eyes to tear up. It's more noticeable when I use my phone or computer for a long time. My home is in a village, and I've visited several hospitals. Some said it could be glaucoma, while others said it might be conjunctivitis. I'd like to ask an ophthalmologist if it's possible to have glaucoma, conjunctivitis, or other eye conditions?Doctor's answer:
Eye pain accompanied by tearing, considered a symptom of visual fatigue, with prolonged computer use as the likely cause. It is recommended to apply antibiotic eye drops such as levofloxacin hydrochloride, combined with anti-fatigue eye drops like Stieglitz Eye Relief. In the future, use your eyes less and engage in more activity, while maintaining sufficient deep sleep to gradually restore normalcy. Glaucoma can cause eye pain, nausea with vomiting, and severe vision impairment.
