I have a very painful eye infection (cause unknown). what can i do for the pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Eye Pain: If you can ask your eyeMD what is the cause of the infection, it would help. For now, ibuprofen or acetominophen if ok with your PCP will help. Topical drops can help too depending on the reason for the pain.
