Suggest Treatment For Constant Blinking, Sore And Swollen Eye

I am constantly blinking, and my left eye is sore and swollen most of the time. My optomotrist thinks it's allergies, but I don't think that's the problem, because it doesn't effect both eyes. I'm not sure if it's an opthalmology problem or a neurological problem, because I've read that constant blinking can be caused by stress. What treatments are available for this problem? Any home remedies? Thank you.

your thinking is right. it is a habit disorder. it may be related to stress. in-case of allergy you have rightly thought i has not effected both eyes. You can control it by doing yoga and meditation.
