Suggest Remedy For Peeling Skin Under Eye
I wiped my eyes and the kleenex fell apart and got lodged in my eye. I went to urgent care the next day. He gave me drops and pulled out what he could and looked at everything and gave me a prescription. Today, I noticed under my eye a little skin is peeling and it is miserable as it s scratchy. What can I do for comfort and how long will I be impacted?

Hi
You seem to be developing allergy to any of the medicine that you have been prescribed .
Itching ,redness or irritation in the area around the eyes especially when the person is putting some eye drops could be suggestive of allergic dermatitis due to eye drops .
Yoh need to see your prescribing doctor soon to get them changed ,
Take some oral anti histamine for the time being .
