# You can try some paracetamol or codeine. Check with your doctor before taking any medicine. Keep away from sunlight. Wash your hands to avoid infection.

Wearing sunglasses and using artificial tears will help ease the pain until healed. Do not were contacts until symtoms are gone. If you have vision changes seek medical attention.
