Eye Allergies and Bed Bugs - what to do?

For years, my right eye has gone through phases where it waters uncontrollably. This leads to redness and dryness, even if I just blot the tears away. It is especially bad in the wind. This also happens if use certain types of mascara. I can not pinpoint exactly what I am allergic to so I don't know what to avoid. Any comments or suggestions about this? Second, I have bed bugs. I have seen these bugs for years but did not know what they were. I've even found them in my car (obviously transported by me). The place I am living now is where I grew up. I lived there off and on over the years. I know this place has had bugs for at least 15 years - even if maybe they went away and came back? I don't know. I doubt the bugs are confined to just my room - I know the other members of the house won't want to 'exterminate' the issue because of the inconvenience and money. What do I do about this? I frequently sleep at my friend's house - do you think I brought the bugs to his house?

Try tobradex. Much more effective for conjunctivitis. (pink eye)

As for the bugs, they are highly contageous. You might want to find another place to live. Source(s): I'm an ophthalmic technologist.

Ok well, Close your eyes, click your heels and ask to be moved to an un-bed bug place!
Yes. You bring them with you wherever you go.
They drink your blood and transmit diseases. Serious diseases.
You need to move out of the bug infested filth you live in.

I also wanted to add that it's entirely possible the bugs are the cause of allergies. Roaches can. Your bed bugs transmit bacteria, viruses, toxins.
Gross!! how could u live w/ bed bugs 4 15 yrs. I'd rather live in a tiny dingy--clean, BUG Free environment than a SEEMINGLY nice place that was infested by blood sucking vermin. I feel the need to say it again-GROSS!
Eyes ... It probably isn't an allergy. Eyes water a lot when they are dry. That is how the eye tries to hydrate itself. The best thing to do for dry eyes is to use eye drops. The eye may dry out because it doesn't stay tightly close when you are sleeping. Also, concentrating on a computer monitor or reading material, not blinking frequently enough, can dry the eye. A dry room in the winter or a ceiling fan in the summer will also dry the eye. A real dry cornea is very painful. Talk with your eye doctor about it.

Bedbugs ... yeah, you are probably taking them every where you go.
