This Morning's Eamonn Holmes forced to get urgent medical help from Dr Hilary Jones

Eamonn Holmes was forced to get some emergency medical help from Dr Hilary Jones today.

Eamonn wore glasses on today's show alongside his wife Ruth Langsford and explained the reason behind his change in appearance.

The presenter's left eye looked swollen and painful and he said he had woken up in lots of pain and was unable to see out of it.

Ruth said it was "scary" when they woke up today and Eamonn said he was suffering from a stye.

A stye is a small lump on the eyelid caused by an infection.

Eamonn said he'd spoken to Dr Hilary as he came into the studio and had got a prescription from him after being examined.

Ruth said: "Yes Dr Hilary's sorted you out."

Eamonn said he thought it was best to wear his glasses and Ruth said how much she liked him in his spectacles.

And This Morning viewers sent their well wishes to Eamonn.
