i was actually looking for the correct term but i saw my eye doctor he told me things form on the inside of the eyelid (pepulla or a P word i forget it). These are caused by the contact constantly rubbing against the eyelid while u blink. These bumps on your eyelid also produce an extreme amount of mucus, this covering ur eye in a very uncomfortable film. Some solutions: Get daily contacts so that ur eyelid gets a smooth new surface every day and is not being scratched by a 2week old contact. Also dont sleep with your contacts in, and wear glasses around the house to give your eyes a break. I hope i was a help to you! If u feel like replying to me with the proper term for this illness or to say thanks please do so at KurtisDaigle@hotmail.com Thanks.

Why do you sneeze when you have a cold?

You sneeze more when you have a cold because the lining of your nose is very inflamed, and your nasal passages are full of mucus. Very often, this mucus, or something caught in it, irritates your already inflamed nose, and makes you feel a tickle. This causes you to sneeze forcefully, helping to clear the excess mucus from your nose.
