What Causes Persistent Reddishness And Discharge From The Eye?

I have dry, red, irritate eye lids and under me eyes. I have wore No make up for a month and the symptoms persist. Most mornings I wake up with some light yellow matter in the corners and lashes. Not alot. I did have an eye infection 8 weeks ago and was treated with antibiotic drops.

Hello
Welcome to health care magic.

The persistence of redness, discharge following an eye infection indicates presence of eye infection.
Thus requires treatment by the use of antibiotics and antiinflammatory drugs.
Since the infection is persisting for long time antibiotics needs to be used depending on the culture and sensitivity report.

Thank you
