Eye problem
While returning home from office some thing fell in my eyes but did not took it seriously, by morning my eyes got red and while seeing it in mirror I observed some mucus (yellowish jel) in my eyes. I want to enquire whether I have to test that mucus to know what is the problem. OR I request any of you to help me to what to do next.

If you have pain or foreign body sensation or blurring of vision in the eye then consult an ophthalmologist nearby immediately. Otherwise you can use antibiotic eye drops 2hrly e.g. moxifloxacin and put antibiotics eye ointment e.g. ocupol at bed time. Also do cold compresses.
