Hello dear,

Thank you for your contact to health care magic.

I read and understand your concern.

I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.

Sticky or roppy discharge after all the relevant investigation should be allergic reaction.

Allergic reaction causes such a reaction.

I advice you should search for the allergen responsible for such a reaction.

Removing such allergen from the life can relieve the symptoms.

Instead you can take the drop of steroid that can relieves the symptoms. But this should not be used to frequently because this can cause ulcer in the cornea. Please take the drops under your doctors guidance.

Please maintian good hygiene at eye. Wash it frequently with normal saline and distilled water.

You can wear black goggles, this prevents direct light to the eye. Eye strain decreases and so some relief of the eye strain can be decreases.

I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.

Thank you,
Dr Arun Tank
