Hello
The problem you are facing is mostly because the superficial layer of your cornea must have been damaged
Using a lubricant eye drop like Genteal Eye drops would be sufficient. 4-6 times a day.
Since the source is the water jet from the toilet it would be advisable to use an antibiotic as well.
Moxifloxacin eye drops 0.5% VIGAMOX Eye drops 4 times a day should be added
Next Steps
Try not to rub your eye
Health Tips
this is a provisional diagnosis. If the problem persists please do visit a local Ophthalmologist.
