Increase glare in my eyes
I’ve had increasing flare/glare for the past ~2 months. I notice it more while driving at night, especially with bright lights, and sometimes with blue/bright lights. I also experience some disorientation/distortion when looking at many fine lines together, such as in elevators or patterned areas. I recently visited an eye hospital. My prescription was: Right: −6.00 SPH, −1.00 CYL × 10° Left: −3.25 SPH, −0.75 CYL × 160° They checked my eye ,did a scan and did a dilated examination, and the senior doctor discussed IPCL/ICL as an option for my refractive power. However, I’m not particularly interested in refractive surgery just to avoid glasses. My main concern is understanding why this flare/glare has increased recently and whether there is an underlying eye problem causing these symptoms. What tests or evaluations would be appropriate to identify the cause?

Eye strain / discomfort after prolonged
Mujhe kaafi time se feel ho raha hai ki meri aankhon par screen use ki wajah se zyada strain aa raha hai. Main daily bahut zyada time mobile use karti hoon—subah uthte hi 3–4 ghante, phir dopahar, shaam aur raat/der raat tak. Iske alawa mobile se hi approximately 5–6 ghante padhai bhi karti hoon. Mujhe kabhi-kabhi aankhon ko stretch karne ki zarurat feel hoti hai aur mujhe strong feeling aa rahi hai ki future mein shayad glasses ki zarurat pad sakti hai. Abhi mujhe blurry vision nahi hai. Door ki cheezein clearly dikhai deti hain, aur main kaafi door se likha hua bhi padh sakti hoon. Main screen brightness generally kaafi low rakhti hoon.
Help, My son has dryness problem
My son took Accutane (isotretinoin) (20 mg) for about 2 weeks. Shortly after starting it, he developed significant dryness and discomfort. He stopped the medicine about 35 days ago, but symptoms are still present and fluctuate in severity. Eyes: He has dry and sometimes painful eyes. Eye drops provide temporary relief. He feels the left upper eyelid is producing little/no oil or no tears and feel pain in the eye, doubts about MGD. His eye examination showed 6/6 vision, normal fundus and normal eye pressure, with dryness diagnosed. Internal body dryness: He has persistent dry mouth and throat with very less saliva in mouth , sticky/dry lips and dry nose, with a feeling of dehydration even after drinking ample water. Sometimes he wakes during sleep because of dryness. He experiences heavy breathing and internal dryness problems. Guide us about any specific dryness test for eyes and body.
