Woke up with one eye itchy burning and dry

Tags: Eye, Itchy, burning, dryness

I woke up this morning and my left eye is itchy burning and a little dry. It feels like I have something in it but I checked and there is not. My eye is a little red but barely, which is probably just from me rubbing it. I tried eye drops and they did not help. There is no crust or pus just some excess watering. I do not wear contacts or have any allergies to my knowlege. Its painful and extremely uncomfortable, please help!

Pain in the eye is a potentially serious symptom. I suggest you call and ophthalmologist answering service or your own if you have one
