Eye lids

Every morning my eyes have morning crusts on them. I think some people call them 'sleep'.

Some days are worse than others. I have even had a time when the lids stuck together.

Also some afternoons i develop more 'sleep'

Has anyone else experienced this? Think i need to see dr for it?

It all started when i got diagnosed bipolar and started meds.

I would see your Dr. You might have an eye infection, a simple course of eye drops or ointment could help , but I would pop to your Dr. As we are not medics on this site.

Hope you get better soon.

Hi there. Are you eyes itchy at all or even a little blood shot in the white areas of your eyes? If you have any of these symptoms then seek help from your Dr as you may have a contagious infection called conjunctivitis and you will need some drops to get rid of it. I have been told water and a little baby shampoo used as a wash. If you don't have those maybe seek advice from the pharmacy

I would go to the doctors as it could be conjunctivitis. It might also be an allergy. Go see you Dr.

Hi Squirrel, I suffer from this sometimes, my gp said the eyelids themselves had got infected, probably due to an alergy to pet fur if the cats go anywhere near my bed! she prescribed some ointment that cleared it up very well. My eyes however are very prone to problems for years now due to a thyroid imbalance, so you really need to see your GP for advise hun xx

Going to a dr is one of my favorite things to do. Right behind a dental visit.

Really tho thanks for advise. I will call dr this week.

I have no irritations, red whitesof eyes. Nothing except crusties. Pretty sure its not pick eye. I do get double vision in the distance but dont think they are related.
