Suggest Remedy For Pain And Swelling In Eyes Due To Cat Allergy

i am allergic to cats, and last night i was at a house with a cat and i left when my eyes started hurting, and when i looked in the mirror, part of my eye was swollen, on the inside corner of my eye nearest the white and i went to sleep after changing my clothes and putting artificial tears in and i awoke to crusty red eyes and both were swollen [in the same place as just described] and i showered, which helped them feel better, and then i flushed them with my artificial tears and they are still red swollen and hurting. what do i do?

Hello
Welcome to Health care magic.

I reviewed your history. It seems from the history that you are having crusty red eyes. These symptoms indicate infection of the eyes in the form of conjunctivitis.
This requires treatment in the form of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory drugs.

Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for prescription of the drugs.
Hope this is helpful to you.
Thank you
