Can Conjunctivitis Cause The Needle Pricking Feeling In The Eye?

I have needle sharp pain in the corner of my eye and on the eye, and it comes on every few minutes and it is painful. I had conjunctivitis recently. Can this cause the needle pricking feeling in the eye. Sometimes it will occur in the other eye as well. Do you have any advise for me

Hello
Welcome to Health care magic.

I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having needle pricking sensation in the eye.
This can be because of conjunctivitis or because of conjunctival irritations. Use of artificial tears and decongestant eye drops will provide symptomatic relief.

Hence I advice you consult your doctor for evaluation and treatment of the underlying cause.

Hope this is helpful to you.
Do write back to me for further questions.

Thank you
With regards
