Something's wrong with my eye! Please help!?

Question

I took out my contacts, and then I noticed my right eye looks all red. Also, It feels like my pupil(the black part) is going deeperinto the eye, and the white part almost looks like a contact (too flimsy- it feels like it can fall out).

Please help me! It's midnight and my mom said to sleep it off and scolded me. I'm so scared.

Answer 1

well if its red it can just be blood shot but i dont know why the pupil and white part are like that go to webmd.com and go to the symptom checker and put in the info and the symptoms then see what it can be.

Answer 2

A lot of things could make your eye red.  Sleeping will give it a chance to heal itself.  If it's still bugged in the morning, then you can do something about it.  I highly doubt that it will get worse overnight.  Make sure you're cleaning your contacts properly.

Well I bet u cant do anything about it now so the best thing for you to do is put some artificial tears or eyedrops in your eye to soothe it down. Go and sleep to try to heal it naturally but if it is still there in the morning go to the eyedoctor but this is kind of critical. Tommorrow morning get up and go to the eye doctor. Oh yea when youre sleeping,wrap some ice up in a hanky and put it on top of your eyelid for 15 minutes before you decide to dose off. Good Luck!

Well since your mom isn't going to take you to the ER or anything, look around your house for some eye drops and administer those into your eyes. Monitor your eye for a while to see if anything changes. TRY to sleep, but if you can't (I wouldn't be able to in your situation either), then try not to think about it so much. I suggest keeping your contacts out until you see an eye specialist. I hope it gets better! Eye irritation is the worst!
