Yesterday evening I noticed one of my eyes had gone all gunky and this morning it was stuck together when I woke up and my eyes have a really tired feel about them, like Ive been in a smoky room. Is this sticky eye or conjuncitivus, they are not red. Can I get something from the chemist or just wash out with cooled boiled water?

Never heard of the tea bag one, do you do it whilst its still a bit warm or run cold water through it?

sounds like conjunctivitis. Bathe twice a day with cooled boiled water. If this doesnt make a difference in 2-3 days go to GP who will prescribe a cream to clear it up.
