I Have Puffy Eyelids And The Eye Color Is Pink With Crusty Stuff
Last night both of my eyes were getting a goopy discharge (light green color) and I was extremely tired and I felt like I had a headache right behind my eyes. This morning my eyes were sealed shut with the crusty stuff. I washed my face to get it all off. My eyelids are very puffy and the whites of my eyes are pink. If I touch my eyelids genlty I feel some pain. If you could give me any ideas of how to get rid of this I would really appreciate it. Thanks!
