To make it easier for you - 1) if eyes are itching = leave it alone, don't rub your eyes (cause = allergy) 2) if eyes are burning when outdoors or Infront of air-conditioning = leave it alone, blink 3) if eyes stick together in the morning = need to see an ophthalmologist (infection) If you are seeing blurry or if there is pain in your eyes = you need to see an ophthalmologist (intraocular causes)
