I have a red eye problem?

Question

I've had dry itchy eyes for over a week now. Its not pink eye because no crust thing forms and my eye is really red, not pink. The inner pink thing itches like mad and I can't help but rub my eyes. It causes the pink to swell and become red and also swells up my bottom inner eyelid. Any ideas or suggestions?

I plan to see a doctor soon, as the Visine doesn't work and I don't have allergies.

Answer 1

You may HAVE allergies so don't discount that. Stop using the eye drops because they're not working. If you want you could get some sterile saline and use it to rinse your eyes. Get two eye cups at a pharmacy and use one for each eye so you're not spreading germs if there is some sort of infection.
