Allergy or something else
On Tuesday 21/2/23 evening I had been having little irritation in my left eye. Next morning it turned red, swollen & smaller in size. So I went to local opthalmologist & prescribed Moxitak LP (Moxifloxacin Loteprednol Etabonate) 4 times a day for 3 days.
After full prescription too, I have same problem.
When I get up my left eye is swollen and sticky, which I have to wash to open properly. It is smaller in size and red. No pain as such. Vision hasn't been affected (hopefully it doesn't get affected).
Yesterday I consulted another opthalmologist and she prescribed Ocupol DX (Polymyxin B Sulphate Chloramphenicol Dexamethasone) and Bepofree (bepostastine besilate) eye drops.
Both doctors said it was allergic conjunctivitis.
Please help me. I have attached the affected eye(left) photo as well as my normal eyes.
