Brief Answer:
Usually allergy elsewhere can also cause allergy in the eye

Detailed Answer:
Hey thanks for the question. Allergy of the skin may also involve the eye in some cases and for that we usually advise some antiallergic eye drops for the eye like a combination of naphazoline and chloropheniramine eye drops but for that you will need a prescription so it is better to go for an eye check up as we also have to rule out that it’s not an infection. Drops have to be used thrice daily for ten days and it will give you relief. Hope my answer helps you . Regards
