Red, achy eye.
About a week ago, my right eye became achy. On looking in the mirror, I noticed that my eye looks blood shot in a couple of areas. The entire white part of my eye is not red.
It kind of laid off a bit for a few days. There was no redness or pain. This morning though, I woke up and it's redder than before (it covers more area, but still, there are white parts that aren't affected by the red) and it aches whenever I look in any direction other than forward, and it aches just to even gently rub a tissue over to collect the tears that have started accumulating. It has started weeping lots this morning.
Im unsure if I should just blow off work and other obligations this morning to go to the walk in clinic, or if it might be OK to wait until tonight. If I have conjunctivitis, is this something that other people could get being around me?
