When will swollen retina due to oil splash be normal?
Hello doctor,
Some oil went into my retina around 20 days back. I consulted some doctor's, but different doctors gave different advice. While doing some work my retina swells up in the left eye and the vision is not proper. When will it be all right?

Is it recommended to do optic nerve sheath fenestration after VP shunt surgery?
Hello doctor,
My sister suffered intracranial hypertension six months back and she became blind a few weeks after. A lot was done (lumbar puncture, etc.) to bring back her vision but in vain. Recently she has had VP shunt surgery and there is another plan to do optic nerve sheath fenestration. I would like to ask you whether it is recommended to do optic nerve sheath fenestration a short time after VP shunt surgery was done. Secondly, I have attached the recent visual tests (VEP and optical coherence tomography) reports so that you can help me with interpretation.

I have itchy bumps inside the upper eyelid. What should I do?
Hello doctor,
I have had painful/itchy bumps on the inside of the upper eyelid on both eyes (outside corner) for over two months now. They started as red, irritated patches, and now are growths of some kind. My optometrist told me to use lubricating eye drops four times a day. It has not helped at all. What could this be and what should I do? (I am told the bumps are where my lacrimal glands are).
