Have Eye Infection. What Should I Do?

I have an eye infection of the eye lids, they both have the exact same irritation as if a carbon copy. The inner side of the eye lids,towards nose, have a wrinkled look with slight swelling and itching and feels very tight. The exact same condition is also on the outer corner of the lids and nothing on the middle of the lids just on either end and so far antibiotic cream and antibiotics have not worked it just came back again

Ophthalmologist 's  Response
Hello
It seems from the history that you are probably having allergic conjunctivitis or viral conjunctivitis.
Hence it has not responded to antibiotics.
This requires anti allergic eye drops. Please do consult your eye doctor for evaluation and treatment accordingly.
Thank you.
