Lasik Eye Correction

Eye Problems??

I went to the doctor about two weeks ago, it was a walk in clinic ( not an eye specialist). They looked at me for about a minute and told me i had double eye infection and pescribed me eyedrops for 5 days. 5 days pass and my eyes are not pink but still stick together when i wake up. I keep taking the medication for another 5 days like the medication said on the little book that came with it ( against what the doctors orginally perscribed). By day ten i stop the medication and my eyes are fine( 1 day ago). I woke up this morning with ichy eyes and they were pink.Then i took a nap and woke up to them sicking together and really pink,they are not pink anymore because i put the medicated eye drops back in them. They are REALLY sensitive to light because of the medication so i have to wear sunglasses for a few hours after using the drops. I know i cant keep using them because the little book says not to, i dont know if should go back to the doctor? I also have allergies.

1. I think you are experiencing allergic sensitivity to airborne irritants. When the irritation persists, the constantly produced mucous begins to dry and thicken, providing a warm, moist, dark place for airborne bacteria to land and colonize into what become pussy infections. Doctors are good at prescribing medicines that can help to control various stages of the irritation and after effects. But unless you isolate the triggering causes and reduce your exposure to them, it will keep repeating every year. So start thinking back and keep a diary describing your surroundings until you can figure out what the initial triggers might be. It is complicated, because what can in one case be a trigger, when there has been prior exposure to some other irritant, can not appear to be a trigger when taken by itself. That is to say, sometimes allergic irritants have a way of masking reactions to other irritants. This is most typical of food allergies, which also cause nasal and eye irritation. A well-balanced nutritional program is the foundation for building a health recovery program. Your first defense against allergic irritations are robust and healthy nose, throat, and eye membranes. I used to suffer frequent post-allergic infections until I tried taking some nutritional supplements that helped me overcome it. Now I enjoy clear eyes and sinuses year-round. I have found a family of nutritional products that I know gives me the best chance for longevity and health. Email me if you would like particulars. No more red eyes for me.
