By symptom it is allergic but you are using contact lens. Using contact lens continuously will give rise to dry eye. So remove contact and use your specs. apply artificial tear drop like refresh tear for three times a day. when it is alright you can use contact lens. If it is continues You have to be treated for allergic conjunctivitis. Start levocetrizine5mg tablet daily and cromal eye drop 3tines daily.
