What Causes Uniocular Lower Eyelid Swelling?
I am a male aged 24. I work in a software company and currently in night shift. For the past two days my right eye has become reddish along with the inner part of the lower lid. It is a bit inflammatory but not unbearable. Yesterday a yellow puss type of thing came from the side where we get tears but today it stopped. I used moisol drops, When I sleep in the woke up in the evening this eye got sticky and not easily openable. I didn't feel this type with my before. Is this a typical case of conjectivitis. Is moisol good to use in this case.? Attached is the pic of my eye. Please suggest any medicine or treatment
