Ophthalmologist,  's  Response
Hello
Welcome to Health care magic.

I am Dr. Dadapeer K, an ophthalmologist and I answer health problems related to eye.

I reviewed your history.
It seems from the history that you are having itching and swelling of the eye.
This can be caused by allergic conjunctivitis.
This requires treatment by the use of anti allergic drugs and antiinflammatory drugs.

Hence I advice you to consult your ophthalmologist for examination and treatment accordingly.

Hope this is helpful to you.
Do write back to me for further questions.

Thank you
With regards
Dr. Dadapeer K
