Hi, Thanks for using the HCM.
you can come out of this, get check your eye power, if there is any problem with that get it corrected, keep yourself busy in your own interested activity so as to neglect that rubbing, or you can cover your eyebrows so as to avoid touching it, attending yoga classes are also helpful.
Hope I have answered your query. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help. Thanks get well soon....
