How To Treat Conjunctivitis?
Hi there I've had some problem with my left eye, going on a month now. I have seen a doctor three times getting different drops an told I have sirvere conjuctivitis my symptoms still are as bad as I first got it. I have flesh under my eye lid, can barely open it, blurry vision, an it constantly runs all the time with gunk and pus. What am I to do three types of eye drops have not done any good.

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having severe conjunctivitis.
The presence of flesh under the eyelids indicate pseudomembranous or membranous conjunctivitis.
The treatment is by use of antibiotics depending on the culture and sensitivity report. The membrane may be required to be peeled off under slit lamp.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
