Suggest Medication For Eye Irritation

Posted on Fri, 6 Oct 2017

Question: Please answer this one quickly as I have somewhere go important and I look horrible. On Friday morning, Sept. 8th, I tried get an eyelash out of my eye with a cotton swab. Very stupid , I know, and it immediately made a kind of dry spot and it immediately got bloodshot, but then in a matter of seconds it turned into a huge totally red glob. So the white of my eye from the iris out, on the entire left side of it looks like a solid blood clot on my eye. It's been 4 days and it's not going away at all. My vision is not affected and there's no pain. Can I do anything to make it go away/ And is there any chance that it's permanent/

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for asking question on this forum.

Have read your details,

Following treatment is suggested,
Tab Cefixime 200mg twice daily(blood is a good nutient medium hence we have to prevent bacterial infection)
Tab diclofenac anti inflammatory as inflammation is thee)
Tab Allegra 180 mg once daily anti histaminic. Histamines increase permeability of vessel and causes blood to accumulate.

This will take minimum 3-5 days to settle down
Don't rub your eyes.Wash them twice with XXXXXXX warm water.

Have a fast recovery.
