Sinus infection, or sinusitis, is an inflammation of the sinuses and nasal passages.

People whose symptoms of a sinus infection do not go away despite the use of antibiotics should follow up with their doctors or ear, nose, and throat specialist quickly.

If you have a question about your contact lenses, you should contact your fitter.

Irritation may occur as a result of worn-out lenses, over-wear of lenses, poor care of lenses, intolerance to solutions, or infections.

Call a doctor when experiencing pain or pressure in the upper face accompanied by nasal congestion or discharge, postnasal drip, or ongoing bad breath unrelated to dental problems.

If you experience irritation, pain, blurred vision, redness, or light sensitivity, immediately remove your contact lenses and re-evaluate your symptoms.

The first part of an eye examination is to evaluate your vision with either a wall chart or a handheld chart.

Eye pain is a common reason for people to seek care from their ophthalmologist (a medical doctor who specializes in eye care and surgery).

As with any medical condition, the history is very important.

Chemical exposure even if your eye was irrigated at home, the ophthalmologist will probably have your eye irrigated again.
