Is It Safe To Delay An Eye Check Up While Suffering From Eye Pain And Watery Eyes?

While showering yesterday, my right eye starting hurting. I thought i had something in it like an eyelash. Instead my eye continued to have light pain and tearing off and on. I assume i likely scratched it. Im out-of-state until tomorrow. Is it safe to wait til im home before i see an eye doctor!

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

It looks like a mild irritation in your eye. I would advise you to use Moxifloxacin eye drops with artificial tear drops. These medication should clear up the problem in your eyes.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
