Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Hello,

There can be many causes for the reduced vision such as viral infection, corneal edema, dry eyes and so on. It is better to get the eyes examined at the ophthalmology OPD at your medical college as early as possible. In the meanwhile continue to use lubricating eye drops such as Systane or Refresh tears, 1 drop 4 times a day.Do not neglect the symptom and remember to get an eye exam done to be on the safer side.

Regards
