Eye discharge
Hello. I woke up today morning and noticed my right eye was red, and every half an hour there is discharge from it. No pain, only redness and discharge.
Additional details : I have a sore throat, a bit of a cold, and did not sleep well last night. Also, I'm a programmer, so work on the computer for nearly 12 hours a day.
Kindly advice. Could it be an infection? Or just fatigue?
