Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have had itching, redness, & puffiness in my eyes for over 2 weeks. I have been using Visine. I thought I could use it as often as needed like another eyedrop I was using. I ll bet I have used it 12 times/day. Could that be the reason I am not getting better and the reason my skin is also so dry around my eyes?
The symptoms of redness, itching and puffiness of eyes seem to be pink eyes due to some infection-viral or bacterial. It may also be co-existing with atmospheric allergies. Hence in my opinion, it will be advisable to use some antibiotic as well as anti-allergic eye drops simultaneously.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Satnarain Bansal, General & Family Physician
