How To Treat Eyelid Swelling?

My left eyelid swells all the time, it s worse when exposed to allergens, I am a daily s contact lens wearer - it swells when I switch to wearing glasses. I occasionally get styes on my upper waterline. I was treated for conjunctivitis initially - and the infection went away, but the swelling never did. I m in an image based career, and I need to find a way to fix this! Help!

Hi
Try to follow eye hygiene strictly.
Do not touch eyes by unclean hands.
Always use white, soft, clean, cotton cloth for it.
No water splashing in eyes
No eye cosmetics, not even kajal
Occasional warm compress
Do not use any detergent around eyes.
These may help
