So I've had a self-diagnosed sinus infection for like 4 days (I've had tons and have been diagnosed with chronic sinusitis in the past)....but ok I've never had issues with my eyes.

Last night my left eye got a bit watery and then started exuding a lot of mucus. It's now a bit red but doesn't hurt or itch or anything (even with contact in). My right eye is completely normal.

Is this necessarily conjuntivitis? Could it be something else not that contagious?

I'm going to see an immunologist later today....should I be seeing someone else like an eye dude?

Thanks in advance!

You're seeing an immunologist for some other problem I assume bc you def don't need to see him for your red eye.

From the sounds of it , it sounds like conjuctivitis but I would definitely remove the contact lenses until it clears. You don't want it to develop into a corneal ulcer or something. There are many serious problems that can cause red eye although yours sounds like just an infection. Go see your eye dude to make sure.

I'm seeing the immunologist b/c I'm sick! Likely with a sinus infection that's not getting better. The eye thing is just a symptom I think but not the main problem (is it possible for it to be a symptom of a common sinus infection?). Ok, so I should see two doctors now?
