Treating An Irritated Eye Thinking Scratched Cornea. Light Makes More Sensitive, Blurred Vision. How To Cure?
I have been treating an irritated eye for over 2 weeks. The doctor thought it was a scratched cornea. However, I had another Dr look at it and they saw nothing. It feels like I have something in my upper eye but nothing is there. Light makes it more sensitive. I don't wear contacts but I do wear glasses. I have slightly blurred vision in that eye now too.
I've been using tear drops 10-20 times a day for very temporary relief.

ur symptoms indicate corneal epithelial defects as first diagnosis.did ur doctor stain ur cornea to see minor defects which are otherwise overlooked.
secondly there can be allergic conjunctivitis but then it doe not cause decrease vision unless complicated or associated with dry eyes.
