Hi there! Happy to help. You need to commence an antibiotic eye drop such as Moxifloxacin one drop 2 hourly along with lubricant eye drops. Review back in 2 days if you are feeling better or symptoms remain the same. In case of no improvement, we need a more detailed assessment to rule out cause.

Next Steps

Avoid rubbing eyes, frequently wash hands, avoid use of common items such as towels, handkerchiefs, etc with other people in the household.
