Excessive sleep in eyes and redness. Why are they shut with mucus in mornings?
Patient: the past two nights I have had an excess amount of sleep in my eyes, more in the right than left eye. My eyes are also red in the inner corners and veiny. I don t think it is pink eye because they aren t completely red and stuck shut with mucus in the mornings. Also, they aren t tearing a lot, but they do burn a little from time to time (especially the right eye). Is this possible allergies? even though I am not experiencing any other signs of allergies? or is it maybe some kind of infection I need to see an eye doctor for? Thanks. Doctor: it may be local eye allergy or snus infectionsinus acute infections also have same symptompstake metrogyl 200 mg bd for 10 daysallegra 120 mg odneomycin h eye ointment in nose and eyes bdchromal forte eye drops in eyes tdsit may taje 2 wk to subsidetake med for 2 wk will be ok
