Left Eye Red And Irritated After Riding Roller Coaster. Headache. Remedy?
I went to six flags yesterday. After riding a roller coaster my left eye became irritated. I left my contact in for about 20 more minutes. After I took it out, my eye was read, tearing up, and very irritated. It feels like I scratched my eye. I am only wearing glasses this morning for sure. I can only keep my eyes open for a short period of time, because it feels scratchy. I also have a little headache. What should I do?

you might be suffering from conjunctivitis, may need antibiotic eye drops and analgesics and antiinflammatory tablets. better to consult ophthalmologist for ruling out entamoeba infection due to constant wear of contact lens. fungal keratitis should also be ruled out because u had eye injury.
