Stye
A stye is a red, painful lump at the base of your eyelash, or sometimes, under the lid. Stye is usually caused by a bacterial infection.
Multifocal Lenses
Multifocal lenses can correct for all distances following cataract surgery. This means you do not need glasses for far, intermediate or near distances.
Eyelid Twitch
An eyelid twitch can range from a mild tremor which cannot be seen, to a full-blown spasm of the eyelids. These may be annoying, but do not affect vision.

The relationship between glaucoma and ocular blood flow has been studied because of its association with diabetes, high BP, sleep apnea and migraine.
