Could The Blood Vessel In The Eye Cause Gritty Feeling?

Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here...My left eye feels like something is in it, but I don't see anything. Possibly a small bubble or something on the white ares to the left of iris, maybe something stuck, but I don't remember anything getting in my eye. Red thin stream around this bubble area, but maybe it's just the outline of the blood vessels that makes it appear to be a possible flat bubble. Does appear to be in the area though where it feels gritty. Thought?

Ophthalmologist, Dr. Dadapeer K's Response

Hello
Welcome to health care magic.

I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having inflammatory lesion on the white part of the eye involving conjunctiva or cornea.
This can be a episcleritus, inflamed pinguecula, inflamed pterygium....
I would like treat these conditions by antiinflammatory drugs.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
