Itching In Eye, Watery, Redness, Skin Folding. Common?

I was driving back home on my bike, it was raining, and i felt an itching sensation inside my right eye. I rubbed it gently. However after a while it was watery, blood red, and then I felt the skin around eye ball is very loose. It seems teh skin is collected/folded around my eye ball. I washed gently and slept. After the night sleep it was red and swollen but better. I had experienced the same 2 weeks back which got alright in 2-3 days. Is it common or something taht I shoud visit a n eye specialist?
I have gone through the laser operation twice to remove the number. Didi this made my eyes very delicate? How can I prevent this?

Hi, it appears that you have an insect into the eye, and due to irritation you got all this or it could be due to the allergy due to the insect, you had allergic conjunctivitis.
As you have got laser operation, though the problem may not be due to surgery, but to prevent any problem to the eye, it is better to consult the doctor for preventing any damage to the eye. Thank you.
