Hello
I reviewed the history. It seems from the history that you are having pain redness discharge and swelling of the eyes. All these symptoms indicate acute infection of the conjunctiva, conjunctivitis.
The treatment of the condition is by antibiotic eye drops and antiinflammatory drugs.
If the condition is not responding to the above mentioned treatment then eye examination by a eye doctor is required to rule out complications.
Thank you
