Sore eyes

[Jane306]

Any ideas on my sore eyes? No gunk, just very sore and ache. Not the first time this has happened normally eye drops help but doesn't seem to be doing the trick this time@

Photos under review,

Which eye drops help you? What do you use them for? Is it your right eye that's hurting, or both of them?

I have to use eye drops that are preservative free otherwise they get worse, not better.

Hycosan Night Dry Eye Ointment Overnight is what i use, I asked in a pharmacy last year and this is what's recommend. I use when my eyes look like this not every night. Both sore but the very red one in the corner is worse x

Have you spoken to the GP or an optometrist about it? There are some medical conditions that cause dry eye.
But a couple of things might help in addition to the Hycosan Night - a warm (not hot) compress 3x/day, also a lubricant drop every couple of hours during the day. Pharmacist could recommend something. PP is right - preservative-free products are better.

Hope this resolves soon for you, OP

Do you wear contact lenses? I'd go see the optician, personally.

Hi no I dont need glasses or contact lenses, yes I think I need to x

Ill try this thankyou, I was recommended thera tears for irritation and red eyes, I have coeliac disease so im wondering if anything else auto immune going on. Ill give all the advice a try then visit GP. Thanks x
