Answer 1

do I really have to say it? Did you really not think of this yourself?

Go to a doctor.

Answer 2

any sudden loss of vision or eye pain should not be ignored it could be something serious, however,  I think in this case, its maybe conjuctivitis mild eye infection, if it was eye grit and you rubbed that would hurt, you are supposed to gentle sway  eyes with eye bath and never rub them as eye are delicate. Rubbing is bad if there had been grit you could have rubbed it into your eyeball and need to go to a and e  to have it rinsed out or checked with drops, should a sudden vision loss, and vomiting etc come on, or dizzy spell, ring a  dr.asap. so Id ring a dr just for some advice just now instead of worrying.

Answer 3

you prob have an infection, if you wear contacts or something thats 99% what it is.  i had the same thing and almost had to have a "cornea transplant" because of how serious the infection was haha, but if you go to your normal doctor and it is an infection they will send you to an optical doctor and they can give you eye drops or whatever else you need

Answer 4

i have no idea, but it should go without saying you shouldn't take chances with your sight, you need to go to your gp, at the time it happened the hospital should have been your priority
