A 47-year-old member asked:
Do my eyes go crossed eyed because of contacts?

No: Crossed eyes and contacts are not related. There are several reasons why eyes might cross; poor vision, lazy eye (amblyopia), strabismus, etc.
Many times the situation can be corrected by a pediatric ophthalmologist...They specialize in crossed eyes.

Lid Hygeine: Try to clean you eyelids daily with dilute "baby shampoo" and a cotton swab. Place a drop of the shampoo in your palm and dilute it with some water. Work up a small lather and then wet the swab. Clean the base of the eyelashes where they come out of lid of both your upper and lower lids.
Do this daily for a while. You can hopefully cut back to less frequent cleaning over time.

A 42-year-old female asked:
What could possibly be the cause of the whites of my eyes turning blue?
2 doctor answers • 5 doctors weighed in
Dr. Mehdi Ghajar answered
Ophthalmology 18 years experience
Thinning sclera: This can be genetic or develop as a result of eye conditions later in life. You may have a genetic problem that is also related to other connective tissue diseases like the bone, or rheumatologic disease like rhematoid arthritis or have developed this as a result of injury/infection. The sclera can appear blue when it gets thinner & needs to be evaluated by an eye md (ophthalmologist) asap.
