What Is The Suggested Medication For Itching In Corner Of Eye?
the medial corner of my right eye are extremely itchy. Also the Caruncle on the Right seems inflamed in comparison to the Left. Should I be worried about this? Also, what will stop the itching? Initially I presumed it was just dry eyes so I used lubricating eye drops, but they didn't help. What do you suggest?

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having itching of the corner of the eye with inflammation of caruncle.
This is because of inflammatory disease involving the catncle called as caruncilitis and treatment is by use of antiinflammatory drugs.
Artificial tears may not help in this condition.
Hence I advice you to consult your ophthalmologist for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
