What Causes Eyelids Itching, Burning And Swelling?

Every February at some point, my eye lids start itching like crazy & burning, swelling up and it is VERY FRUSTRATING to say the least. I need a cold wet cloth at night to cope with it and get to sleep. I m not one to have difficulty sleeping as usual. 1.) we do not have any animals 2.) I dust & clean regularly with a mask 3.) I use shea body butter every night all the time but when my eyes get like this I try anything. Last night I broke a piece off my Aloe plant and rubbed the liquid on my eyes. It seemed to help but this morning the burning and itching is back.
