What Causes Constant Tears In Eyes Along With Mucus Formation At The Corner?

I have had my left eye flooding with tears from the center of the upper eye lid for about 48 hours and they have been clear tears. In the last 12 the eye is building a mucus in the inside corner. No burning or itching but blurry because of the tears. Started to have a headache the last two hours like an early sinus headache. What can I do?

Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Hi,

Symptoms you presented are more consistent with conjunctivitis, but you will have to rule out any foreign bodies under your upper lid. Symptoms will reduce by antibiotic eye drops but for that you need to confirm the diagnose by consulting an ophthalmologist.

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

Regards,
Dr. Hassan Sanooj U. V., Ophthalmologist
