What Causes Cut Like Raw Place On The Eye?

I have had a cut like raw place on the outside corner of my right eye for about 4 months. I have been to the eye doctor 3 times and the problem will not subside. He gave me an antibiotic eye ointment to use, but it does not help. He gave me a steroid drop also. It helps heal it overnight, but after a day or two it comes back. I have spent over $300 on this problem and it has not been resolved. Any suggestions?

what ever you take but avoid steroid. since it mask the symptoms and recurrence is more serious. In my opinion take systemic anti biotic like tablet ezythrocin 500 mg daily for 6days. Clean the area with sterile swab, and apply beta dine solution. It should be alright within ten days.
