What Causes White Coloured Discharge With Blurred Vision?

I m 50 years old, in good health, 5 9 tall, 178 lbs. My problem is that for over a day now both of my eyes have been excreting a white fluid particularly in both corners of the eye. I woke up with a crustyness around both eyes and the excretion continued to occur throughout the day. It is not painful, just irritating and my vision gets a little blurry from an apparent film-like coating that this secretion is causing. I had a bad head cold earlier in the week although it is much better now but not completely gone.

It can be bacterial or allergic conjunctivitis. since there is no itching so it is likely bacterial. Start using ofloxacin .3%eye drop 6hourly. Clean the eye with sterile swab. When discharge is controlled blurry vision will go.
