What Causes The Recurrence Of Swollen Red Eyes And Lids?

Every couple of weeks i present with swollen red eyes and lids... I have a few times been prescribed tobramycin drops thinking it was conjunctivitis... I have also had on two occasions a 1.5cc IM kenalog injection... The injection seems to help for a short while but then the symptoms reoccur... Any thoughts??
