Suggest Remedy For Irritated, Shut Eye With A Crust In A Diabetic Patient
hi, I have had over the past 2 months 4 times where my eyes have been crusted shut along with sticky matter along with it. They begin to be really irritated, but it isn t pink eye. It will itch a little though. I hate bright lights, I have been diabetic for 15 years and the eye doctor said I had high pressure in my eyes when I went for my exam for glasses. He said though that I must have been born with high pressure, but this still all worries me. Any advise or other symptoms I should be looking for I would be very grateful. Thank You
