irritation in my left eye

by Hannah81, Oct 22, 2008 06:20AM
my left eye is very itchy, I have pain above my left eye that feels like a localized head ache..I'm not in a lot of pain but it is very annoying, this has been going on for a few days..... I was wondering if there is something wrong with me or am I just having an allergic reaction to something.... I haven't been around any animals lately, cats do bother my eyes.. but it id fall so maybe there a new irritant in the air?  my only option is to go to the ER, witch I would rather not do if there is nothing serious wrong with me please help

You should have a personal physician or a personal ophthalmologist. It will be less expensive to see them than go to ER.

For itchy eyes try Zaditor available over the counter.
