Brief Answer:
Seems to be conjunctivitis secondary to viral fever.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have gone through your question and understand your concerns that you are having itchy eyes. I would like to ask you few more details.

Is there any sequence of sneezes?

Kindly get back to me with the details.

Based on your clinical details, it seems to be allergic rhinitis or conjunctivitis secondary to prodromal stage of viral fever.

I suggest the following measures, to overcome your symptoms.
1. Steam inhalation.
2. Anti allergic medication tab.cetrizine 10mg at bed time (over the counter medication).
3. salt water gargling.

In case of persistence, needs to be evaluated with ENT surgeon to rule out other causes.

Wishing you good health.
