Recurring Eye Infection In Same Eye. How To Cure Them Completely?

I keep getting recurring eye infections, it is always in the same eye and happens every month or so. Previously i have had small white spots which have appeared and most recently one seemed to grow to just smaller than the sizeof a pea. I have treted them with over the counter eye drops/cream and the infection if thats what it is seems to go but returns weeks after. What is it?
