How Can A Corneal Ulcer Be Treated?
There is a little white pimple-type thing on the white part of the eye. The eye hurts to touch - like pressure behind the eye. The bump became noticeable yesterday because it felt there was pressure behind the eye. The eye has been red/bloodshot for 4-5 days. Is this an urgent matter?
