Question

Eye Infection

Asked for Female, 13 Years

My eyes were irritated last Wednesday . I didn't mind it but my friends said it was swollen and reddish. Then on Thursday, I was walking and an insect entered my eyes. It took us minutes to remove it from my right eye. They said it was more reddish again. On Friday, my right eye continued to be swollen and by Saturday morning, my eye is sore.
