kferricks Posted June 15, 2011 Report Posted June 15, 2011 I've been taking my girl swimming for a while now, and normally I would think this was from the chlorine. But the chlorine in this pool is not usually strong and her eyes were never red the other days. Normally we are there for 4 to 5 hours. Today we were only there for about 2 1/2hours. Anyway both eyes have a red streak that go from the corner (one end) and curve to the cornea. WEIRD. She just finished this weeks Tindamx last night. Could this be a herx? Sometimes I just feel so incompetent with these illnesses..

Hey - you never know...doesn't hurt to throw it out there. Is it gone (or going away) today?
kferricks Posted June 16, 2011 Author Report Posted June 16, 2011 Today her eyes looked better, but she was complaining her ear hurt so I took her to our family physician and he said no infection, but TMJ. She has been grinding her teeth I guess. But, tonight her eyes look bloodshot, but at least the red is not a rainbow shape over her eyes. That really freaked me out last night. The kid has not done anything today that would warrent bloodshot eyes, so I'm clueless..
