Hello
It seems from the history that you are probably having infection of the eyes in the form of conjunctivitis.
This requires treatment by antibiotic eye drops and oral antiinflammatory drugs.
Since this involves prescription I advice you to consult your eye doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.
Thank you
