For the past 4 years or so, I have constantly been in my doctor's office for eye irritations - feels like a foreign object, scratchy, floaters, swelling, infections, nearly everything under the sun. I'm 20 years old and it seems like I get styes multiple times a year as well as infections such as pink eye. Everytime I go they shine light into my eye or use a dye and look at it under a black light - they tell me there is nothing in my eye and that it's not scratched and send me on my way. I'm frustrated as h**l because I feel that there is something going on with my eyes that no one will take a closer look at. I shouldn't be getting pink eye 3 times a year and styes twice a year, it doesn't make any sense. A few hours ago I was in so much pain, my eyes were burning and scratchy and I couldn't get any relief - drops, flushing with water, cold compress, warm compress...nothing helped. I've never experienced anything like that, I was ready to hop in the car and go to the ER room. But then it suddenly stopped, just like that. I'm going to the eye doctor tomorrow because I can't take this anymore and I'm leaving for school in 3 weeks, does anyone have any clue what this could be ('m looking for like a condition name)?
