Ds had a mild bout of conjuctivitis about ten days ago. It wasn't a bad episode and the doctor gave him some eye drops. I kept him off school and it cleared up really quickly. In a couple of days it looked much much better.
Last week my eye started to look red and sore. I had been careful around him but I might have picked it up from ds (lots of cuddles). It also might have been an irritation from my contact lens.
Anyway I got some eye drops too from the doctor a couple of days ago but mine isn't improving like his did. I look awful - like I've been punched in the eye. My eye is red and swollen still. I've just boiled some water to bathe it with.
Is there other medication I should be asking for yet or am I being impatient? I look like I've been in a fight On the odd occasions dc have had it over the years they always seem to have responded faster than I seem to be to treatment.
I want to wear my lenses again. And makeup. And not look like Frankenstein's mum.
