What Causes Pain In The Eyes After Exposure To Insulation Dust?
I was working on a bedroom and insulation dust was air born (this was about 4/5 hours ago). I have a small pain mostly itchy eye, the corner bump in the eye. Eye is red on that half of the eye. Would the insulation be the cause? Because I can t think of anything else and nothing flew in my eye from flying debris. Left eye The slight pain is when I move my eye left as well

Hello,
It is due to an allergic reaction.
As first-line management, you can try antihistamine eye drops for symptomatic relief.
If symptoms persist better to consult an ophthalmologist and get evaluated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
