Redness and swelling in right eye towards outer end. Used sodium carboxymethyl cellulose drops thrice since morning but there has been no considerable change. I was dusting my house yesterday night and when I woke up today, there was this redness in the eye with mild swelling which aggravated towards the white portion too.
