Is it gritty? Is your eye stuck together with goo in the morning?

I had this once and it felt like you described but the cloudiness was a yellow film of pus that I could peel off........vile.

It was conjunctivitis. I got some drops from my optician and it cleared up in 2 days.

no, no grit or anything, just sore.

What's that all about?

I had some obscure disese once in one of my eyes, they became hypersensitive to light. Went to BRI and they misdiagnosed it, gave me some drops, 24 hours later i couldn't see anything in that eye. Had 3 injections "into" teh eyeball. some wierd steroids for 6 months ( I had to carry a card saying what I was taking and had to be wiened off them slowly). Surgeon said he'd never seen it in anyone under 75 before...

If its still painful tomorrow get to RBH

My eye was a bit like that last night, no clouding tho.

I found it had mattered a little during the night.

As the day has wore on, my eye has started to cloud when I blink, it's running ever so slightly at the moment and my eyelid has swelled, is red and a little tender.

I'm guessing a sty is going to come up.......not a clue how you treat it though.

I've got the same problem, Golden eye ointment is what I use.

Never had one before. Was just going to buy some eyewash or summat. Is Golden eye ointment a brand name, is that what the chemist will know it by?
