I've woken up with really crusty sticky eye that has gone all swollen and puffy.

What is the best thing to help make me look semi normal again ( I'm out at a swanky dinner this evening 😥)

A pharmacist will give you something for right now boiled water add salt cool down. Wipe eye once with a cotton pad dipped in the water then use a fresh one each time you wipe. That should help

Golden Eye Ointment is magic. Also try Dr Amazon. Type into Amazon conjunctivitis and check out what people say

Go to your pharmacist and get some advice. They will be able to sell you suitable eye drops.

A pharmacist will sell you antibiotic eye drops. They work really quickly.

Bin your mascara (if you use it) and don't start a new one until you've finished your full week of eye drops. Otherwise you risk re infection.

Also if it is puffy you can put a cool compress on it to reduce the swelling.
