2018-08-02 10:31:02
Today at school while I was gurgling my mouth some of the splashes water droplet reflected from the dirty wash basin entered my eyes. Then my eyes became red. After 8 hours when my class ended then I came back home from school I washed my eyes with pure fresh water. Will anything happen to me because bad water droplets entered my eyes at school from the dirty wash basin?

You must have washed it then and there. If the redness and discharge is persisting then it could be due to infection. Please share a close up pic of your eyes with detailed information about discharge redness watering pain swelling itching and blurring of vision or consult an ophthalmologist nearby.
