  • Eye irritation

    From KenK@21:1/5 to All on Tue Sep 27 17:44:28 2016
    I've had a mild annoying irritation in one eye for a month or more. Feels
    like there's a speck of dust in it from time to time. I use a few drops of Artificial Tears every few days, when it annoys me enough, sometimes
    oftener. Helps for a while.

    No red streaks in eye.

    No big deal but annoying. Any guesses? Anything I can do OTC?

    TIA

    I would visit an ophthalmologist (not optometrist), I would think it is covered by medical insurance.
