What Causes Redness And Green Discharge From Eyes After Having A Sauna Session?

Hi, I went to the sauna today for and was in it for an hour and twenty minutes. I just looked in the mirror this evening to see that half of one of my eyes, from the inside corner outward is bright red, and both eyes feel somewhat dry. Is there a relationship here? Should I be concerned? There was also abnormal green eye discharge which formed in the corners of both eyes although only the left eye is half red.

Hello
Welcome to health care magic.

These symptoms indicate eye infection in the form if conjunctivitis.
This requires treatment by the use of antibiotics and antiinflammatory drugs.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
