Eye bug bit

2017-11-03 15:52:50
Yesterday I noticed my eye was a little swollen on the bottom part like I got bit by something like a bed bug. Today I woke up and now it has got even more swollen, I can barley open my eye, it itches, and there’s like a hard Crust on my bottom eye lid that won’t come off. I have work today so I was wondering what this is, if it’s contagious and if it would be best for me to stay home to for it to heal. Also my eye is pink.

Better to stay off work for a day. Seems like an infection. Use an antibiotic eye drops like ZO eye drops frequently - every couple of hours. Take pain killers by mouth. If you are not better in 24 hours, see an eye Doctor. Maskatieyeclinic Opposite Charni road station east, Mumbai
