Vision dropped in 1 week

Vision dropped in 1 week (father, 78 years), both eyes, one worse. Anything related to retina here?  Had cataract in one eye but he didn't undergo surgery last year and opted for ayurvedic treatment instead. Also the dog bite him in the leg last week but the vaccination was done within 48 hrs. Anything related to dog bite ?

Increasing droopyness. Uneven eye.

I have always had uneven eye size. But in recent months, it has become more pronounced and noticeable. In some photos, my right eye look almost closed. And my pupil is half covered from both top and bottom eye in my smaller eye. It looks swollen. The eye lid is droopy and even the lower lash line heights are different in both eyes and the eye bag in my smaller eye seems to be bigger than the left eye . Kindly advice.

Dry eyes syndrome

I have dry eyes syndrome and my screen time each day is 11 to 12 hours including phone and laptop as i am a student and i have to watch long lectures . I have been prescribed two eyes drops by a doc in my locality - 1st is haloeye pg and 2nd is lotemox- pf , i have been told to use both the eyedrops simultaneously in a gap of 5 minutes 4 times a day for two weeks , earlier i have used advance lube eye drop for around two months there was no such problem but two days back after using the drop i found some irritation and itching in my tear gland and im not sure it was due to the drop or my dry eyes , i searched on google and found out that lotemox pf eye drop is for bacterial infection, redness and inflammation but i have non of these , should i use both of the drops prescribed together? I also get light sensitivity and sometimes i have to shrink my eyes to see some small text or bright thing and i already wear power spects , i also have restricted eyeball rotation inmy left eye by birth

Floater, Sparkle, Afterimages

I have a lazy left eye and have power in both eyes. 8 have floaters too in both eyes. There are many web like, tail like, bubble and dot like. For 20 days I have been seeing afterimages of objects like grills, clock, text and images on phone, laptop and tv. Sometimes in Sky I see sparkle glitters like jugnus too many. Sometimes persistent afterimages for the bulb for 3-4 mins if I close my eyes it becomes multiple. Today I noticed a little bit of a light sensitivity also. I got a dilated retina exam at Shroff eye centre 3 days ago and my retina is fine. The doctor is saying the afterimage phenomenon is normal. This did not exist 20 days ago How is it normal? I worked in IT, I am using refreshed tears eye drops. Also, I start to feel tiredness, little pain and burning sensation in my eyes very soon while working on my phone and laptop. Can anyone tell me what to do? Lazy eye, floater now afterimages/ghost images, sparkle, light sensitivity. Shall I consult neuro or other opthomologist?
