Dr. Floyd A. Warren MD's Expert Contributions
I have slight pain in my right eyes and I am seeing spots frequently. What could be wrong?
It could be some type of inflammation or, less likely, infection. You should start with seeing an ophthalmologist. READ MORE
How is strabismus treated?
He should be seen by a pediatric ophthalmologist and make sure it is "just" strabismus and not anything underlying that is causing the eye misalignment that needs to be addressed. The strabismus is usually treated surgically READ MORE
Can my son's single eye squint be corrected through surgery?
He should be seen by a pediatric ophthalmologist to assess if there's an underlying reason that this developed, as he's old for this to come on. If nothing is found, then it could be corrected with surgery, I'd think. READ MORE
Are eye floaters a problem of the eye or a neurological problem?
They are an eye problem, but should be evaluated to be sure there isn't an underlying inflammation, infection or retinal problem causing them. READ MORE
My eye looks different because of my astigmatism. Anything I can do?
Your eye shouldn't look different from and astigmatism. Make sure something else isn't going on in addition to the astigmatism. Rarely something in the upper lid can induce an astigmatism, but could also make the eyes look different, so make sure you get it checked out! READ MORE
What is the reason for double vision following an accident?
It would be helpful to know more about the accident and the double vision. Assuming no direct facial trauma, and just a closed head injury, if the double vision were horizontal and at distance, one would think about a 6th nerve palsy, possibly bilateral 6th (in which case the images would get further apart looking both right and left.) If the double were horizontal at near, convergence insufficiency would be high on the list (very common after concussions). If it were vertical double vision, one would think about 4th nerve palsy or palsies. If there were direct facial/periocular trauma you would also have to think about orbit fractures with globe displacement and/or muscle entrapment. In all these cases, it should only be binocular diplopia, i.e. using both eyes together. Covering an eye should resolve the double vision. If the diplopia persists monocularly, then think about a dislocated lens or IOL and rarely a retinal detachement. Floyd A. Warren, M.D. READ MORE
