What Causes Eye Pain After Playing In Water With History Of Undergoing Cataract Surgery?
We went to water park 3 days ago. I woke up with unbearable pain in my eye next day. I Used some allergy drop and felt better for 2 days. But I have been having some mild pain sinve morning today. I have had cataract surgery done on that eye couple of years ago. What could be the reason?
Hi there. Water parks are known to cause certain eye infections. Fungal ones in particular. You could have contracted something like that. Please see an opthalmologist and start on topical meds. It will settle in few days. Until then it would be good to wash the eye in clean cold water and use a clean napkin to pad it. Hope it helps. Take care.
