A member asked:
Film on white of eye (conjunctiva) moves when touched. should i be worried?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not really . . .: The conjunctiva normally has a small amount of mobility. Too much mobility can cause minor irritation. More importantly, your eye really shouldn't be touched with anything other than your eyelids on a regular basis. Fingers are generally pretty dirty. Eyes like to stay generally clean. You' ll be better off not touching your eyes.
