Hello
It seems from the history that you are having redness and irritation of the eye and you are on treatment with ketotifen eye drops.
Ketotifen is an anti allergic medication used for treatment of allergic conjunctivitis.
If the symptoms care not coming down with ketotifen low potent steroids are required.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.


Thank you
