How To Get Rid Of Sting In Eyes?

For about the last year my eyes get a sting in them and you can pull it out sometimes. I went to a Dr. and he said I had an infection in the right eye. I did everything he said but still have it and it's both eyes not just one. I clean them out about 20 times a day.

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having stinging sensation in eyes following infection. The treatment is by using antibiotic eye drops and the stinging sensation can be reduced by using artificial tears eye drops and decongestant eye drops.
Hence cleaning the eyes may not help but need to cure the underlying condition by appropriate drugs.

Thank you
