On and off for months now I've been struggling with my eyes. The skin around my eyes will get really itchy (normally at night which keeps me up). I don't itch them a whole lot, but it gets so bothersome that I just have to itch it. In the morning my eyes are swollen and all the skin around is beat red. It leaves me looking like a retarded drug user. Nothing seems to help, eye drops seem to make it worse. I've used a good eye skin lotion but nothing. I'll ice it a while in the morning so I can open my eyes but it only makes the swelling go away slightly and brings out the red. I don’t know if I am allergic to anything and can’t seem to pin point why some nights they itch and others don’t. A friend of mine has told me to search on cromolux which he has heard to be very effective with these type of illness. While surfing on the net I came through this:
Cromolux Eye Drops are used to treat allergic conditions such as hay fever and conjunctivitis which are conditions that can cause redness, discomfort and discharge from the affected eye. It contains sodium chromoglycate which prevents and treats these symptomsSource: http://www.drugdelivery.ca/s3409-s-CROMOLUX.aspx

Anyone have this problem or have any ideas? Any medecine??
