What Causes Itching And Swelling On The Eyelids?

The skin on my eyelids is dark, itchy, and the skin peels. There is also some swelling above my eyelids, sometimes very puffy, especially in the morning. I have been careful to use cleanser, skin moisturizer, and makeup foundation that is for sensitive skin. What s going on?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

It can be allergic conjunctivitis, blepharitis or stye. For stye, epilation is required and clean by sterile gauge. Apply Neosporin eye ointment on lid margin. Apply Ofloxacin. Do not use any cosmetic. Get your eye examined by the eye doctor. Can apply Cromal eye drop.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ashok Kumar Dash
