Can The Fungus From Toe Infection Lead To Itching And Swelling Of Eyelids?

I have terrible athletes foot and toenail fungus on my right foot. I try to be careful about washing my hands so it doesn t spread to my fingers. Today, my eyelid is horribly itchy. Can the fungus be causing my itchy swollen eyelid and if so, what do I do about it?

Hello
Welcome to Health care magic

Fungal infection of the toe is not related to itching of the eyes. This can be because of allergic conjunctivitis. This requires treatment by the use of anti-allergic eye drops like olopatadine.

Hope the information is helpful to you.

Thank you
