What Is The Cause For Heaviness Behind The Left Eye?
My friend is very worried about a heaviness behind her left eye which she has had for some time. Her oculist says he has never had this before and she is obviously anxious about it. There doesn't seem to be any offer of what it could be and as her eyesight has deteriorated over the last year she is very worried. I would like to give her some answers if possible.

Hello
It seems from the history that your friend is having heaviness behind the eye lid.
This can be because of inflammatory lesion involving the gland of the eyelid.
Yes she needs to undergo eye examination to rule out this condition.
The treatment is by use of antiinflammatory drugs and antibiotic eye drops.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
