My Eyes Got Infected

My eyes suffered from virus infection last Sunday. Actually, my wife got the infection about 1 week ago and no matter what precaution I took, I still got infected.

This is the second time I got such infection to my eyes. The first time is about 2-3 years ago. The early symptom of the virus attack is an acute pain to the eye followed my irritating eye as if some dust had gone into it. The eyes will then turn red and the eye socket will appear swollen.

During the infection process, the eyes will secrete fluid which should be handle with care as it is contagious.

Normal eye drop will not help. The best thing to do is too see an eye specialist. There is only one in Sibu, Kang's Eye Specialist. The medical fee is not cheap, RM65 but the eye drops administered by the doctor are very effective and will show sign of improvement within 2 days. Both of the eye drop must be applied every 4 hours.

I tried to look at the labels and found out both of the eye drops appear to be manufactured by Allergan from Switzerland. I believe they are some sort of antibiotic or some sort.
