hello! I have been having an eye problem for awhile now. I know everyone is going to say go to a doctor. I am waiting on my insurance to register and then I swear I am going! Something is seriously wrong with my eyes.....My left one is worse than the right. I have a history with pulling out hair......Always eyelashes. I stopped that a few years ago, but as a result, my top eyelids are much thicker than normal. At least, I assumed that was a result of that. Anyways, I have had discharge from both eyes for awhile now. Not green, but white and stringy......Sometimes it clumps and forms almost like a ball and sticks on my eye and I have to wiggle the eye around to get it to a spot I can get it out. My eyes are really awful when I first wake up, really wet and of course there is always some crap in them. Not just in the corner of my eye by my tear duct, but also sometimes on the other corner of my eye. Anyways, I use tear drops after I get out of the shower because sometimes when I am up for awhile...........The watery feeling goes away and they seem a little dry. I thought maybe I had dry eye, which can be caused by the swelling of the eyelids.....But I am unsure. Well, now, along with the crap that I have in my eyes.........I swear that they are sinking. I know this sounds crazy...........But it is mainly the left one. I used to be able to how can I say this........Take my fingers and run them from the inside corners of my eyes to the end corners and there was a signifigant amount of a raise between the under of my eye and my actual skin on my face. Now, it seems like there is hardly anything especially on the left side. I am freaking out about this! I know I have to go to see a dr, but I am also really scared. Does anyone have any idea what any of this could be? My vision is not blurred, I have not lost it even for a second, I can move my eye, but have to admit to having this strained sort of feeling some times. Any help would be appreciated! Jen
