itching eye

[h90]

just came back from a long flight.....

The next 24 hours my eyes felt a bit like there is sand in them.....I think normal from have them open 24 hours and the dry air.

But now one eye is itching a lot on the corner (close to the nose). The eye is not even red. Looks normal so I guess it isn't something serious and just ignore the itching.

Blocked meibomian glands ?

Eyedrops? Washing off eyebrows and eyelashes? Also, after washing your eyebrows, eyelids and eyelashes well, let your eyes air dry. Don't dry them with a cloth or towel. If the problem persists, go to a pharmacy for some eye ointment or cream.

Rinse with saline solution

Today in the morning it was gone, but 30 min after opening my eyes it started again but less strong than yesterday....so I hope it just fades away.....

Maybe you have an eye mite infestation....

And now the itching is gone without any reason.....maybe just the dry air in the airplane.....

I just read about the eye mite I don't want such......

I have "Ichy eye" issues from time to time since childhood. The past several years I spray colloidal silver directly into the eye and it take care of it every time. Caution: wash the area first as your skin oil will drip into the eye area when sprayed causing irritation, the colloidal silver does not irritate. Buy only quality products, home-made not recommended unless well studied.

It is already 99 % good...just the dry (or dirty) air in the airplane. I never have eye problems unless I make something very stupid.....Therefor I wasn't used to that kind of problem.

This is quite normal after a flight (as is dry skin) - the air in planes is extremely try. Lubricating drops and time will usually reoslve matters..or even just time alone.
