Since I was a kid I have always gotten cold sores around my mouth and nose, and over the past few years it has been quite recurrent. Im 21 now and I seem to have developed a core sore on my eyelid. Its mostly over and scabbing up, a period over a few days because I treated it. Could this be ocular though like keratitis? Or is it possible for the simplex to cause sores there. I have no other side effects that ocular herpes suggests, just the minor discomfort where the sore is. I didnt plan on going to the doctor, but I have had this once before on the same spot I believe when I was young, without the side effects. Basically im just freaking out and could use some input on the situation, I was unable to find any. I dont take valtrex or anything like that because I cant really afford it. Thanks for your input

I too have cold sores on my eyelids. Its not the same as ocular herpes. I have no f*****g clue why i get them there, the doctor didnt even really tell me why. I only get them when im pregnant.
