Extremely red eye w/ white bulb

[MurrMcBride]

Hi all, so my right eye has been hurting me for a couple of days. It's extremely red in the inner corner only and right next to my iris at the center of the redness is a white bulb that sticks out. I have bright green discharge coming out of that eye and there's this pressure I feel on my eyeball similar to a pressure test at the eye doctor's office, only it's constant. I went in to see my eye doctor the first time this happened and he said I had a stye and staph infection and prescribed me some eye drops and hot compress twice a day. It did go away but a couple of weeks later, it's back and it's worse (the bulb appears larger and it hurts more). My doctor's office is closed until Monday but I'm out of town until Monday night. I'm not sure what else to do other than continue the hot compress and go through the rest of the previously prescribed eye drops he told me to discontinue when my eye got better initially.

I can't help you with this. Your "eye doctor' should have a on call doctor covering their practice. that is usual case. you should be able to call the doctor's office and speak with the on call doctor. If you doctor doesn't have 'on call' I would look for a different eye doctor. Our practice has 24/7 on call services.
