My eyes are red and painful. How should I begin treatment?

Asked by Male, 23 ยท 2 months ago

You should visit an eye doctor urgently for proper diagnosis and treatment, as red eyes with pain may indicate a serious condition such as an infection, glaucoma, or corneal inflammation. Meanwhile, avoid rubbing or touching your eyes and stop wearing contact lenses if applicable. You may use preservative-free lubricating eye drops for temporary relief, but do not use any unprescribed eye drops.
