Soooo I went to the eye doctor
B.c I went only 6 months ago for a new prescription and I am squinting again really bad.. Its kinda crazy...
soooo I go to the eye doctor today only thinking I am getting a stronger prescription and he ends up telling me I have an infection in both my eyes and the cornea are swollen
Sooo I can't wear my eye make up, or contacts for a week and have to put drops in them 5x a day.. I am freaking out as to why this happened. it could be the solution.. I have been using Opti-free. Or something else could be it like my makeup.. But I have to deal with my old glasses and squint for another week to see if the drops help..
Has this happened to anyone before.
thanks for listening

Re: Soooo I went to the eye doctor
Ugh, I've had that before. Did they tell you to throw away all of your eye makeup? They told me you can reinfect your eye if you use the old makeup or contacts!
It stinks...Happened to me in college when I had the oldest glasses...It was a bad week, but the drops really help quickly.
ETA: They told me you can get it any way...If you touch a doorknob, then your eye....

Re: Soooo I went to the eye doctor
I'm so sorry this is happening to you sweetie It could be from your eye make up too. Make sure to throw it out and relace it when the infection is gone and you can go back to make up or you will reinfect your eyes..feel better
Nov04libride and I had the same idea

The same thing happened to my sister. But she used the drops and it eventually went away and her eyes are fine now.

Re: Soooo I went to the eye doctor
happened to me a few years back. My doctor thought it was a combination of wearing them way too long and not cleaning them properly. My doctor actually switched me to daily contact lenses - no cleaning to deal with, no solutions. I love them!!
ETA: definitely toss anything that is used around your eyes - your eye make up, undereye concealer, etc.
