Yesterday evening I opened a new bottle of tea tree oil and a drop flew out of it straight in to the corner of my eye. I Googled what to do and tried flushing it out with warm water but I wasn't convinced it did the trick. I used a sterile eye rinse as well but I could still feel the discomfort. Finally I saw a post that water and oil don't mix and that I should try a vegetable oil, so I grabbed my E.V.O.O and rubbed it in a circular motion around my eye, wiping with paper towels, wet with warm water, to remove the oils and then apply more. After a few times the discomfort went away, it stopped hurting, stinging, and burning, but the redness and yellow bump remained, as well as the mucus like yellow gunk that kept coming out. This morning the redness had spread and my eye was swollen on both the top and bottom, and the bump was just a bit bigger. But now the bump is much bigger, the redness spread more and is much brighter, and I'm very nervous about it. I was planning on going to my eye doctor tomorrow, but I'm wondering , should I go to the hospital??

Go to your eye doctor. Go to the hospital if you develop a fever or your whole lid is affected or your vision changes or you can't move your eye right/left/up/down. Tea tree is definitely potent stuff!

Can you remove scars from the eye? Or can you remove the “spider vein” from the eye ? Caused my contact lens damage . Is there a surgery yet ? I really want to remove these hideous veins that are external and look like “spider veins “ kind of like the ones you get on your legs but it’s on my eye. Let me know ! :) I’m studying to be a neurosurgeon and I know technically is developing daily!

@EyeSchoolwithDrD 3 жыл бұрын

Corneal specialists do have some ability to reduce or remove corneal scars. But nothing for the external prominent veins like you described just yet! Lumify drops can reduce them but it’s a drop you have to use continuously and it doesn’t cure them!

I wake up with red eyes and go to sleep with red eyes. Been having them since I was a teen. Dr says it’s dry eyes and recommended artificial tears. I used several different brands and they help a little bit and eyes color change to a faded pink instead of red. I do notice then when I get 9hr of sleep I’ll wake up with pinkish eyes instead of red. I use eye drops up to 4 or 5 times a day to help with the redness. I’m tired of it. It’s embarrassing too. Either people ask me if I’m tired, drunk or high. Also when I get flushed due to excitement, embarrassment, even just hot temperature my eyes get bloodshot. I feel them burn up. It’s like the blood rushes there first and it’s quite embarrassing specially when I’m out socializing. Is there any testing I can do to see why I have this? also is it genetics, my father also suffers from the same thing.

I just don't understand why there aren't any better tests to identify the causes of the red eye infection and also treatments for viral infections. I have been struggling with eye infections for 3 months on and off. At first I was told it was viral so I should stay away from the gym and the office. I threw away my makeup as well. Then I was told it was allergic so I shouldn't bother with that, and just take antihistamine drops. It just came back again today. Doctors really need to do better. I have missed out reunions, weddings interviews because of this and nobody seems to care because it's not life threatening. I've been to three different opthalmologist now. It's infuriating. I have never had this issue before, once I had a bacterial infection when I was a child. That is the only time I can remember. Why wouldn't you guys do more research when it's so debilitating and so much money is lost on missing days at school and work because of this??
