Hello,
It seems from the history that you are having allergic conjunctivitiis or blepharitis.
The treatment for both these conditions is usually required for comparitively long time.
Hence I advice you to continue treatment till all the symptoms are reduced as per the advice of your ophthalmologist.
Thank you

You might be having an allergic conjunctivitis..
You can start using anti allergic eye drops like olopatadine and if required low strength steroids also..

Consult your treating doctor and start treatment with is advice..
Hope this information helps.. Take care..
