Hello.
Based on your description, it looks like the lump is an infected swelling (can be cyst). Your symptoms also are suggestive of acute inflammation. Hot water fomentation helps a lot in such situation. So please do that. Also some oral medicines need to be started right away for controlling the infection and subjective relief, otherwise it may go into a stage of cellulitis. One needs to see the lump first for giving appropriate treatment. So kindly provide a photograph for the same. You ...more

I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you.
Surface pain is usually caused by irritation from a foreign object, infection, or trauma. Often, this type of eye pain is easily treated with eye drops or rest. Eye pain that occurs deeper within the eye may feel aching, gritty, stabbing, or throbbing. This kind of eye pain may require more in-depth treatment.
Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan f...more

Hello. Floaters can be physiological (normal) or pathological (abnormal). Physiological floaters are due to tiny condensed vitreous and are not damaging to the eye at all other than giving a floating particle sensation, so can be ignored.
Pathological floaters on the other hand can be dangerous as they maybe due to an impending retinal tear/ detachment. These floaters if not timely managed, can be vision threatening. If identified early, can be treated with laser and/or surgery. No type of m...more

Hello. Entoptic phenomenon is a normal mechanism in which objects inside the eye create visual effects as they cast shadow against the retina. There is nothing to worry about it at all. Also, I request you to specify ‘weak spot’ as said by your doctor. Weak spot can mean a lot of things to an eye doctor. You can provide photographs of your documents to get a clarity first, so that particular issue can be discussed in detail, which will help in clarifying your doubts.
Secondly, arcus most...more

Hello.
Such floating black dots/lines/cobwebs are floaters in medical terminology, particularly visible against light coloured and bright background. These floaters can be normal or abnormal, depending on the other parameters of eye like history of any kind of trauma or having high power or just an ageing process. They vary in their numbers, size and location. Whatever floater are visible right now may be totally normal, in which case nothing needs to be done at present or can be an alarming...more

Hello Mr. lybrate-user!
from your description it seems like you have an epithelial defect over your cornea. Due to blunt trauma to the eye especially forceful one (like an air hose pressure) the outermost superficial layer (epithelium) of the black part of eye (cornea) gets eroded, and since cornea is instrumental in vision, that is why you have blurry vision right now. The epithelium will slowly heal by bodyã¢â€â™s natural mechanism, but might leave a slight scar later on depending upon its...more
