    Pain in right eye
    Hi Everyone,

    First let me say that I'm going to my doctor on Monday, but it's Friday now and this is driving me nuts.

    I have severe pain in the corner of my right eye. The little ball like thing in the corner closest to my nose. It hurts really badly and my eye is tearing up allot. Could this be a clogged tear duct or something worse.

    Any advice would be great, the pain is really bad.

    If it is a clogged duct, how do I get it to unclog? The pain is driving me crazy.

    You will have to get eyedrops from the doc. Try warm compresses until then

    Thanks guys. I did try the warm compress and I've been massaging the duct. It feels a bit better today, but it's still clogged. I'm seeing the doctor on Monday.

    Hi everyone. Yup, it's a clogged tear duct, the doctor gave me some drops and told me to continue massaging the duct. It feels better today, now the left one is acting up so I'm putting the drops in both. Hopefully the drops will do the trick.

    Thanks all for your help and advice.
