저도 단순 안구건조증 인줄 알았다가 병원가니 결막염이라고 해서 항생제 안연고 처방 받은적 있어요 증상만으로는 개인이 판단하기 어려우니 안과가서 정밀검사를 받아보세요. 결막염이라면 항생제 사용해야 좋아집니다.
Question) I have eye irritation. Should I go to the hospital?
Lately, I've been feeling a constant stinging and burning sensation in my eyes, and I'm worried. Even the slightest breeze makes them sting, and even indoors, they still feel dry. It seems to get worse after prolonged use of a smartphone or TV. It's not tearing, but it feels like something's irritating them, and it's uncomfortable.
I'm wondering if this could be due to dry eye, or if it could be an inflammatory condition like conjunctivitis. I'd also like to know if frequent use of artificial tears is safe, and if other treatments like nutritional supplements or warm compresses might be helpful.
For those of you who have experienced similar symptoms, please give me some advice on how you managed them.
