Suggest Remedy Itchy & Loose Sclera

Hello, the sclera part of my eye began to feel irritated and upon looking at it I discovered that the sclera appears loose, and upon slight pressure, is moving and bubbling up around the iris. I am not experiencing pain or itching but rather just a bothersome irritating gummy sensation and the eye continues to water.

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having itchy eyes. The loose sclera which you have mentioned indicates swelling of the conjunctiva because of chemosis which is commonly seen in allergic conditions of the eye.
The treatment of the condition is by use of anti-allergic eye drops and decongestant eye drops.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
