Irritated red eye

2017-08-18 15:39:16
Yesterday I put in my contact on my right eye in a rush and forgot to wash my hands. It was the worst burning sensation ever. When I took the contact out my eye was tearing and and the whole white part of my eye was red. It was supposed to go away today but it's still red and white crust forms around the eye when I wake up. My pupil is sensitive.

It may be due viral kerato conjunctivitis.  Use Moxifloxacin + Loteprednalol ( Apdrops- LP / Modloren-LP ) eye drop One drop 6 times daily + Acyclovir eye ointment three times daily  for at least two weeks.  It'll be sorted out.
