red eye

Former Member

I've noticed that my left eye is red in one corner. Not like it's just bloodshot, it's much more dramatic than that. Is this how pink eye starts out? The eye is knid of sore when I rub it too.

Should I stay away from my friends?

You need to lock yourself up in a room(somewhere in weeki wachi would be nice)to avoid all possibilites of coming into contact with any human!!!!!

Naaaaa only kiddin, you dont have to keep yourself away from your friend, just dont rub your eyes and touch something that they would, like a can of juice or something.

It sounds as if you might have a mild case of pink eye, if you wake up and your eye lids get a bit sticky then you will deffinately have it.

Use eye drops just now to combat it and take away the pain <IMG SRC="biggrin.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">

Ughh...

I'd rather pull out my handgun and shoot myself than be stuck in weeki watchi again. <IMG SRC="biggrin.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">

Actually, I get the sticky eyelids a lot anyway. Is this a sign of pink eye? I'm going to see the doctor if it gets worse, but I wasn't sure if this was just a product of my heavy drinking, minimal sleep lifestyle.

So it's not really that contagious, huh?

What kind of eye drops should I use?

That I dont know unfortunately, drugs in america are different than the ones here in scotland so I couldnt really give solid advice about which ones would be best

A visit to the doctors would be advised, or even an optician as they're specialists(obviously)better being safe than sorry, especially when your eyes are concerned <IMG SRC="eek.gif" border="0" ALT="icon">

Hi Alessandro,

There are so many causes of red eyes that it would be irresposible to try to diagnose it without looking at it!

Could be an allergy, infection, dryness, abrasion, or a number of other things.

The only way to sort this out is to go to see a doctor and get it examined - do not attempt to diagnose and medicate yourself.
