itchy eye... wrong category?
Sorry if this is in the wrong category... it seemed to be the best fit.
Anyway, for the past few days my left eye has been really itchy. I don't wear contacts or anything like that. It feels like there is an eye lash that fell into my eye... it's that exact same feeling, but there is nothing in it. The feeling is not there 24/7 either... it probably feels that way every 4 hours or so, and I can't stop rubbing it when it happens which makes it itch and bother me even more!
What's wrong, and how can I fix it? Any ideas? Thanks so much in advance! :)

you may have an eye infection. theres alot of things that could be wrong, you could have got an eyelash in your eye and may have a small cut. go to your optometrist ASAP to get his/her opinion and some eyedrops to fix it. hope i helped!

It could be allergies, infection or an ingrowing eyelash etc.
You should definitely not rub it, whatever the cause, as you will only aggravate it more, and it won't make it feel better. If it's gone on for a few days, you should see a doctor about it as soon as you can. You can't take any chances with eyes, if you can't get into see a doctor quickly, go to an eye hospital. I wouldn't recommend putting anything in it until you have seen someone about it, in case it's the wrong thing and makes it worse.
Hope that helps, and good luck.

Wash it out with water. Or in other mening flush your eye. It is really bad allergies this time if year as well. It could be allergies. If it is go to a store like krogers or CVS or what ever they have where you live and see if you can get eye drops. If the problume keeps occuring or getting worse go to your doctor. They can tell you and give you a perscription and or tell you what to do for it. Also take a cold wash cloth and hold it over your eye for a little bit when it hurts. Hope this helps. Good luck in the future.

Ask someone to look on your eyelid.(lift it up and look under it) My eye got mascara in it once and had a big infection on the eyelid. Try not to mess with your eye because it will only add more germs. hope i helped! <3

Hi. I'm not for sure what it could be. But I agree with the person under me. It could be allergies.
But I do know how to stop it! :D Clear Eyes makes a drop for itchy eyes. You should try that for a couple of days, and if it doesn't get better simply see an eye doctor.
Hope I helped!

Hi
It could be as simple as allergies. Try taking a reactine and see if that helps. There are also eye drops for allergies that you could try.
Good luck,

If it is also red and with a bit of pus around it,it may be conjunctivitis. Otherwise just bath it in cool boiled water or Optrex. If that doesn't work then you may need to pop to the chemist and ask them to recommend a cream or something similar. Hope that helps.
