What Is The Remedy For Redness And Swelling In Eyes?
Last night an 8 week lab puppy scratched my eye while wearing soft contact lenses and the entire white part of my eye is blood red and eye is slightly swollen and feels dry. Vision was a little blurry this morning but I went ahead & put new daily wear contacts in. I washed it out and it s not really painful. What else should I do?

1. Before going forward with any remedial cure first check with an Ophthalmic Doctor for necessary examination.
2. Since the symptoms resulted as trauma to the eye thus examination of eye under bright light for any F.B. (Foeeign Body) is necessary.
3. Donot pad the eye. Keep it open, keep.a handkerchief to wipe the discharge repeatedly.
4. Ciplox or Gentamycin eyedrops 2 hourly till the symptoms and redness subside.
