Hi,

Noted the history about your wife having had fever that got settled within 3 days happening since 15 days, the soreness of throat recurred and now has buggers in eyes with redness.
All this history is suggestive of one of the following things:
Upper Respiratory tract infection that is recurring and may be super-added with allergic phenomenon.
The nasal infection and allergy spreading to the eyes through the naso-lacromial ducts.
Hence I would advise her the following:
Consult an ENT Surgeon for proper clinical evaluation, investigations and to get the correct line of management in the form of local nasal drops,.
Oral decongestant and anti-inflammatory medicines.
Antibiotic if needed.
Second opinion of an EYE Surgeon if required.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. T. Chandrakant, ENT and General Surgeon
