Had really irratable eye last night but put it down to being tired and having had lenses in for too long. Was late,m at a ball, so understandable. However when I got home I took my lenses out and my eyes were killing and wouldn't stop watering. Went to bed and hoped for the best.
This morning my right eye was stuck fast shut on waking and had to be bathed to get it to open.
Anyway I could, and still can, see a smallish creamy white circle towards the top of my iris int he right eye. This is what is causing the problem. The whites of my eyes are bloodshot but especially so at the top. It feels itchy and sore, and like a lot of pressure on my eye. Bearable int he dim light, but waters non stop as soon as I turn lights on or go outside.
It's not conjunctivitus as no longer sticky, etc. and no obviosu discharge.
Have had an ulcer in past - about 3 years ago - but not sure if same symptoms. But the white circle could be something like thisI guess.
My vision is ok, just sore and itchy and veyr iritable as you can imagine. The thing is now driving me mad and I am fed up of the discomfort.
Obviously not GP today so will try and get appointment tomorrow or head up to the drop in clinic at the hospital - assume it wasn't open on a Sunday??? Or can I self refer direct to the eye clinic? Will they let me go in and have a look?
Have to get it sorted as need to be able to drive - have work rest of week and need to drive 1.5 hours to a course on Tuesday. At the moment that is impossible as eyes water too much and won't stay open if light.
What do you reckon?
