My eye leaks what does that mean?!


Question: My eye leaks what does that mean?
It only happens in the morning. Every morning when I wake up my eye is leaking a lot. I can't see out of it for about 15 minutes and it leaks so bad it looks like I'm crying.
I do have an eye doctors appointment & a doctors appointment but unfourtunately I couldn't get in until January. so until then can any one tell me what it means?
or what to do to stop the leaking because it sucks being blind in the morning
ps-it's only my left eye.

Answers:

I guess you mean your eye is tearing for 15 minutes every morning, which is quite a long time and not usual. I'm guessing you might have problem with your tear duct. I'm really sorry, but I doubt there is any quick fix home remedy for this type of problem. I'm sure it is very annoying but I guess you will just have to deal with it until you see the eye specialist.

You might want to try sleeping in a sitting position for one night to see if it that helps. Your tears or the moisture in your eye might be accumulating during the night while you're in a prone position causing a block in your tear duct. I am not a doctor and this is pure guesswork because I can't think of anything that would cause a 15 minute AM tear problem.

Allergies would normally effect both eyes but there would no harm trying an allergy free pillow.



You need to be checked out now it could be an infection.


Good luck

Eye care specialist.



It could be an allergy - get a new pillow and wash your sheet and pillowcase - see if that helps at all



I just thught it mean your tired. It happens to me sometimes.
