How often do you rub your eyes? Did you know that it is harmful?
A lot and now I’m having eye floaters

After eye surgery to corrected my vision, my Dr. stressed the importance of not rubbing my eyes. Since then, I have made a conscience decision to avoid doing so. But, I've not heard anyone else mention it. Your video should serve as a PSA that rubbing our eyes should be avoided. Thank u!
It is so important. Thank you, Aurora!
I believe I got keratoconus from rubbing my eyes due to allergies. I just had crosslinking done in april in my right eye and struggling to type this as I got my left eye done over a week and a half ago. Please stop rubbing your eyes. I'm told keratoconus can also be inherited however no one in my family has it.
I am sorry you had to experience this, Vivi. Thank you for sharing!
@@DrRupaWong me too but grateful for professionals like you that can help.♥️
1. Ceratoconus isn't caused by rubbing the eyes, however it can worsten it and I agree to the rest, about creatoconus you said.
2. You massage out your Meiboms glands. Thats good if you have dry eyes.
3. Rubbing out lashes, sand and other stuff out of your eyes instantly is better, than keeping it several hours in the eye, until you'll get to see a doctor, risking to get your cornea scretched much more during that time.
4. if you gently rub and do not do it every day like crazy, you'll be save with that.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts and being here!
To 3rd one. My optometrist said it's better to try to wash stuff out with eye drops. Not sure if every type of eye drops will work tho🤔
@@nastiastonehey what should I do because I have a very bad habit of rubbing my eyes 👀 and I can’t stop
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 Super video as usual, Thank you Dr. Rupa.
Thank you!
@@DrRupaWong ❤❤❤❤❤🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
Goodness I've had DRYYYYYYY eyes for years. I've used water, oils, artificial tears, it gets even worse when it's cold. Thank you for the tips for dry eyes ❤
Darn! I was hoping you'd say it was okay. I'm careful to never touch my eyes (or my face, really). Sometimes it just feels so good, though. 😊 I'll think of that video from now on. Ick.
I am glad to help! Thank you for being here.
I’m having fears of going blind because of my eye rubbing. I don’t rub my eyes when I have contacts on, but when my contacts are off and I’m rubbing eyes, I’m worried about going blind.
Great video idea! My mom used to rub her eyes so hard, it made a specific sound. Like kneading a damp dough ball. Ugh. She had year round allergies that peaked mid August early September
Oh my goodness! I am glad you have seen this video so, hopefully, you do not do the same. 😵
@@DrRupaWong it's still a reflex, but I'm working on it!!
@@janem3575 is your mom ok how are u doing
@@Slickrick59 we are ok. trying hard not to rub eyes. I'm doing a better job than my mom. She has chronic year round allergies
@Jane M I try hard to not rub my eyes either to Jane but sometimes u can't help it it feels good after u do it tho and I haven't done it for about couple months good to meet u
Thank you for the very informative clip! This works really well as a reminder from ‘the eye doctor’, to do the 20-20-20 to relief eye itch, to my young-adult children 😉
Glad it was helpful!
I tend to rub alot in my sleep, which I have no control over , how can I combat this
Have you ever tried using a sleep mask? That might help!
I also tend to get styes too (around the cold seasons)
@@ThiviyaKumar Ugh. Those are terrible!
@@DrRupaWong I sometimes rub my eyes I'm trying my best to not do it a lot
Three responses. Firstly, in reaction to your video on migraines I find using a laptop or smartphone causes my migraines. Not instantly but many hour later, which mystified me as to cause, until I limited laptop and smartphone use dramatically and only used with blue light blocking dark glasses. Secondly, I got my first and floater immediately after rubbing my hay-fever itchy eye whilst hiking. Thirdly, I have a strange visual distortion of an area of 3D depth when I am looking at a flat surface such as a sidewalk. It is like a bubble of water but of 3D depth. It is only in one part of the eye's visual field and it moves if I move my eye. It does not bother me otherwise. Its just like a raindrop on a clear glass window, through which the glass looks more 3D. Hard to explain fully. Interesting though. I love your videos. So clear and frank and uncomplicated and cheerful and insightful.
I'm so sorry you suffer from these conditions. Thank you for being here and letting me know your thoughts! :)
Thank u for this! Do you know any good over the counter eye drops for irritated or dry eyes?
Hey Sophia! You could try artificial tears such as Refresh or Systane. Here are a couple videos I have on dry eye treatments -

Building a safe environment is more important, as well as instruments
Natural disasters are real and people do not truly understand the mineral deposits underground
including natural gas development that can cause explosions, there are also more potential hazards.
People usually wait for accidents to happen allegedly before they make changes
When construction sites excavate minerals under the ground they find massive rocks etc
that they may not even understand existed.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts, Justin!
Me rubbing my eyes while watching this 👀😭
