Sore eyes

[Mumsnut]

One of my eyes has been sore at the outer corner for a few days. Today, they both are , and there is a foamy scum on the lower lash line.

No redness in the white of the eye

I’m assuming blepharitis , but just wanted to check and see if anyone has associated this sort of symptom with corona. I have no other symptoms

(I have Googled, by the way, and ‘pink eye’ is
Sometimes a symptom of COVID. Mine aren’t pink though, and i reckon they’ve been sore long enough for any pinkness to come out if it were going to)

The only eye symptom I had when I had corona was that it hurt to move my eyeballs.

Sounds like Blepharitis. I have it chronically it’s miserable, hope it clears soon for you.

Pretty certain I had covid back in March. I had very sore eyes but no gunk or anything. Friends with confirmed Covid also reported sore eyes. Again no gunk! Any other symptoms?

Nary a one

Any tips, Bailey?so far all I can findisto wash the eyes with dilute Abby shampoo

DH and I have had covid and had sore eyes, but they were more red-rimmed and itchy (and hurt to move in the sockets). No gunk or pinkness.

If you haven't got a temp, cough of loss of taste/smell, have you got an aching lower back, legs, or stabbing pains in your joints? Does the skin feel sore across your back?

That was how I started, didn't get the temp or slight cough for a few days.

Doh! BABY shampoo

No more achy than usual Carina: am trying to exercise every day at the moment

Fingers crossed - I think it's easy to attribute everything to bloody covid at the moment!

Shampoo is a bad idea surely?! What about some boiled, cooled, slightly salty water?

As far as I know coronavirus sore eyes dont come with gunk. Mine were bloodshot and stung like I had got smoke in them but no signs of infection.

Mine were pink when I had covid but not gunky.

2 colleagues both tested +ve yesterday after sore eyes about 5 days earlier.

Also had sore eyes as my only symptom. They weren’t gunky or red or red though, just actually hurt to move them. Hope you’re okay OP.

I’m feeling no pain after smoked salmon and champagne.
