red swelling

[sammy]

I noticed this red swelling above my eye yesterday it was fairly large like a basball,by evening I could see a formation of several small lesions starting the last lesion I had closed day before. It seems they have too have a opening too spill the liquid that comes from them, I guess that is the swelling filled w liquid. today it is very red and swollen with just one opening. which Iam trying too treat. plus I have the white fibers on my eye lid and above sammy

Go to the doc on this, they can't say your crazy. Did you read the post I left for you about fungal and parasitic infections of the eye. Don't mess around with this Sammy! Please make an appointment today.

I have been going to the eye doctor for the past few weeks. He gave me antibiotics for inflammation of the conjuntiva which didn't do anything to help and made it worst. He said that the white thing on my eyeball is a cyst and couldn't tell me what the two balls are under my upper eyelid or why my lids keep swelling. He did an exam/dilation and said that I had worst vision in my right eye (the one with the cyst) which I already knew and could only get me to 20/30 vision with glasses.

I feel for you Sammy and can relate. Let me know if you go to an eye doctor and what they say.

Have you considered a salt poltice to pull out the liquid and reduce the swelling? It worked for me.I so hope that you can get some relief soon.I almost feel guilty that I'm doing so well and enjoying my life.
