I have myopia and my distant vision is blurry. My eye power is minus 0.25 in both eyes. Can eye drops help with this problem and does the axis matter in lenses?

Myopia causes distant objects to appear blurry because light does not focus correctly on the retina. Eye drops usually do not correct this problem, and glasses or contact lenses are commonly used to improve vision. The axis of a lens becomes important when there is astigmatism, as it helps correct the direction of the visual distortion. Consult a doctor for a proper eye examination and guidance.

I have redness and itching in my eyes, and I wear spectacles daily. My right eye power is minus 1.00 with axis 90 and my left eye is minus 0.50. What could be causing this problem?

Redness and itching in the eyes may be caused by allergies, dryness, exposure to dust, or eye strain from long screen use. Wearing spectacles with your given power is not usually the direct cause of these symptoms. Try to avoid rubbing your eyes and give them regular rest if you use screens for long periods. Consult a doctor if the irritation continues.

I accidentally got a small amount of super glue in my eye. What eye drops or immediate treatment should I use?

First, please do not panic. Avoid rubbing your eye or trying to force your eyelids open if they are stuck. Immediately flush your eye with plenty of lukewarm water for 15 to 20 minutes. You can use generic, preservative-free lubricating eye drops (artificial tears) to help soothe the eye and wash away any loosened particles. Do not use any harsh chemicals or solvents. After flushing, please seek immediate medical attention at an emergency room or from an eye specialist. They can safely examine your eye for scratches and gently remove any remaining glue. Your tears will also naturally help loosen the glue over time.
