You possibly have allergies, however your "eye stuck shut" is more in line with Pinkeye/conjunctivitis. You need to go to the doctor.

I've had this problem in the past. It has been red and half shut for a few days. You will need to go to the doctor and get some drops. Most likely there is a piece of eye lash stuck in your eyes (that was my problem) ask someone to look while you hold your eyes open. Look in different directions..

Only a doctor can answer this correctly. To open your eye comfortably in the morning, put a warm washcloth on it for a few minutes, then finish with a cool cloth. I have had just that symptom for 30 years, and that's the only thing I can do to "unstick" it some days. For me, this is allergies.

What other signs of pink eye were you waiting for? I have tried this home remedy and it worked for pink eye - use multipurpose contact lens solution. Drip it direclty into your eyes at least 3-4 times/day. The Boric acid in there takes care of the pink eye. And the product is made for contact lenses, so you know it is safe for your eyes.

Friend, I wouldn't fool around if I were you. Let a dr determine if its allergies and you need antihistamines or if its an infection and you need anti-biotics.
Don't waste time when it's your eyes. Get to the dr and let him have a look.
I have had an infection in my eyes, ears and sinuses all at once and it was not allergies, I needed antibiotics.

Don't mess around with it, get some drops from the doctor. It could be just a symptom from a cold, but it's better to be safe than sorry. The longer you wait to treat pink eye, the harder it is to get rid of.
