Each subsequent pressed released a bit more Less tight right eyeball also leaked some fluid but not as much. The pressure released in the eye.  Is this normal? I have woken with the same eye tight eye before.

Hi
Welcome to the MedHelp forum!
Please consult an eye specialist immediately. You either have infection of the tear gland or even blepharitis or infection of eye lid or it could even be conjunctivitis. Clean the eyes with cotton swabs dipped in water and throwing the swabs in a closed dustbin. Use one swab for each eye. Wash hands well after each eye wash. Wash your clothes, bed linen daily separately from others. For yourself you can buy OTC antibiotic eye drops but it would be best to consult an eye doctor and get this examined first. Take care!
