Eyes red and swollen

2017-05-05 03:12:13
Eyes are bloodshot red and a little swollen. This happened after I removed my lenses last evening. When I close them, it feels warm and uncomfortable and opening them makes me feel itchy. Problem has been persisting for the past 12 hours.

You should discontinue using contact lens at least for a week & leave it chemical solution  till you may continue with glass ,you may use Refresh liquigel & Tobrex eye drops 5-6 times till you get complete relief& if you don't get relief within 2-3 days ,you should consult local ophthalmologist.
