Hi,
THE DESCRIPTION fits with either allergic or infective conjunctivitis.
It is better to see a eye specialist for advice.
He will examine the eye in detail and advice accordingly.

If appointment is delayed, itis better to attend emergency.
Hope this helps. Kindly dont hesitate to wite back for dooubts if any.
