What Causes Itching And Burning Red Eyes?

Hi, my mother is taking Benezotanate (Tessalon) 200mg t.i.d. and Benadryl. She was given these medications because of acute bronchitis and adverse reaction to Mucinex. She has red blotches (kind of like a rash) on her eyes. She is experiencing burning in the eyes and the rash/blotches seems to be spreading. What could this indicate? I am very worried about her. She also says that her eyes itch. She is constantly rubbing her eyes.
