Having Red And Bruised Eye. Allergic To Pollen. Suggest

Good day. Im a 15 yera old teenager i was playing PC wonday and my eye itsched a little so i had to scratch it. After i did it felt wierd. I went to the bathroom and saw it was bruised and it became red. its been gooing on for 3 days now and im scared. When i wake up in the morning my eye is all closed with that waste material (Sorry cant remember how its called). I dont wear contact lenses, i wear glasses though. Idk about allergies but i think i have an allergy from pollen, i sneeze alot. Oh and my eye burns time by time. Thankyou.

Hello dear,

The symptoms suggest that you might be having Conjunctivitis.
It is caused due to allergic or infective etiology.

Management includes:
1. Artificial tear drops every 4th hourly.
2. Antihistamines to provide symptomatic relief.
3. Steroid eye drops to be used if it is allergic in nature.
4. Antibiotic eye drops to be used if it is caused by bacterial infection.
5. Analgesics like paracetamol to relieve pain.

So...it will be better to consult an Ophthalmologist & find out the exact cause of the symptoms.
Wish you a speedy recovery.
Thanks & take care.
