Lot of itching in left eye corner
I have a normal eyesight and don't wear glasses. From past few months I have experienced some itching in left corner of eye with slight headache. Now headache is gone but itching is der with random pain.
At times itching is more and rest of the times it is very normal. No water coming out of eyes as well. I showed it to a doctor and he said sight is -.25 and recommended cylinder glasses. I don't feel any problem during reading though but can't wear glasses in my profession. Doctor said eyesight is 6/6.
Can't afford The eye sight to go below 6/12
Pl advise

Hello ,
This is a very common presenting complaint of people with mild Dry Eye /early Computer Vision Syndrome.
Get yourself evaluated by an ophthalmologist who will diagnose severity of the disease and give you medications accordingly.
Glasses are not required at all. And there is no way your vision will worsen because of this innocuous complaint.

Hi
The itching in the corners s due to dermatitis of thr eyelid skin
Use antiobiotic steroid combination locally in form of ointment. You can use IMIX-D eye ointment
The vision problems are not related to it
And 6/6 is normal vision
