Is There An Over The Counter Cream For Swelling And Itching In The Eyes?

Hi, can I answer your health question? Please type your question here...I m having an allergic reaction to something unknown. My eyelids are swollen, red, tender and extremely itchy as well as dry and flaky. Same condition under eyes too. This has been going on over 2 months. I use regular allergy medication as well as eyedrops and have had no relief. Is there an over the counter topical cream that would help?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

I would recommend you Tacrolimus cream with Olopatadine eye drops. It doesn't suit all people but its very good for severe allergy.

Hope it helps.
