Swelled eye
I have had some swelling in the right corner of my right eye for almost 6-7 months now. I have been putting an ointment and pressing it with hot water as suggested by a doctor by nothing has happened so far. I have been wearing contact lenses for almost 3 years now but I wore them continuously for almost 9-10 hours last year. Could that be the reason? Would I need a surgery? And if yes how much surgeries like these usually cost?
