I am being treated for rosacea thru my dermatologist. I ve never had that before. I have been using several meds for a couple weeks: a topical steroid called Desonide on the skin under my eye, an oral antibiotic called Keflex twice a day and took my first dose of Stromectol. The next dose is supposed to be taken before I go to bed the day after tomorrow. Last night my left eye started feeling as though it was starting to swell up. There was a small pocket of swelling beside my nose under my eye. When I woke up this am it was more swollen there was a lot of clear liquid that spilled out of that eye when I turned my head upon waking. My son is being treated for pink eye and I ve been trying to be careful to wash hands after applying his drops since I ve already got enough going on with my eyes. My eye isn t red, the white part of my eye is completely white and not bloodshot looking so I don t think it s pink eye. The pocket under my eye has become really large and swollen. The skin on my eyeball seems to be loose and when I move the eye from side to side I can feel it bunching up. What is going on with my eye and should I stop using all those meds until I can get in to see a dr tomorrow. Also, what kind of dr should I see?
