10 Eye Infection Symptoms
Reviewed: Dr. Mera
Symptom #6: Tender Eyelid
Our eyelids do a very important job. They help to protect our eyes from debris and from excessive light, while they also help to keep the eye moist by lubricating it with fluids every time we blink. Things would get quite uncomfortable without them, and they can sometimes become quite sore themselves.
The eyelids are only very thin layers of skin, and the inner layer, in particular, is very sensitive. In the case of an eye infection, the eyelids can become quite tender. They can be tender to the touch, while they can also be quite uncomfortable even when you are not touching it.
