Suggest Treatment For Pain In The Eyes After Eye Exam

Hello, I got an eye exam at 1:30pm today, and now it is 9:00pm. Over the hours, my eyes have started to hurt worse and worse. Now it feels like the back of my eyes are the worst. It literally feels like I got punched in the eyes. Does this make sense? Thank you, Julie

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having pain in the eye after eye examination.
Probably you have hurt your eyes while examination like a corneal abrasion.
Hence this requires examination to find out the underlying cause and treatment accordingly.
As of now you can take analgesic tablets and do consult your doctor if the pain does not come down.

Thank you
