Suggestions for Eye Infection for weeks?

I seem to have an eye infection in one eye. The symptoms vary from day to day and things always get worse after the sun goes down. My sleep scedual is all over the place so it's not from being tired or rubbing that the eye gets worse, some days my eye will only be stinging a little bit all day then BOOM it suddenly swells up and is watering and all sorts of pain. ( and and and, sorry for the bad description there).

I had both eyes infected early this year on top of alot of Health problems but it took months to get into the Opt and then while going in we got a phone call a family member was dieing ( soemone was over dramatic) so they didn't do a thorough exam.

If I scedual an appointment I probably wouldn't see an Opt for over 12 months (or if I already have exam sced I think 10 months) and my Doctor is friends with the Opt so they automaticly say go there.

Some times it's like knife cutting, some days it keeps sealing shut, some times Green or Yellow crust, some red swollen

Sorry for the bad Desc, but I wanted to cover the doctor won't be helpful and I ran out of room.

When my eyes were infected earlier this year there was red and yellow on the eyes themselves and it looked like a gash was under my lens in one spot (that changed color, all my Doctor could say was I'm not an Opt go see him).

So does anyone have any reccomendations or suggestions? Past seeing the busy doctors and not being in their office for atleast 6 months if I scedual an appointment.

If you have medical insurance you should be able to go to an eye doctor that is on it and it should be treated like seeing your normal MD. An eye doctor should get you in the same day especially with the probelm you have

go to the ER

Unfortunately, for some reason people think that something like this is not worth seeing a doctor for until they suffer long and hard or they lose vision. You sound like one of these. When it gets bad enough, and when you do permanent dammage and it scares you , you will see a doctor, and I hope it is not too late to fix whatever it is. GO TO THE DOCTOR> O^O

Go to the ER, or a walk-in clinic. If you really do have an infection, you could lose your vision.
