I have always had allergies but they ve never affected my eyes very much other than slight watering and redness. Lately (past month or so) my eyes have been getting excessively irritated. They over produced mucus and matted shut but would start to heal over night and the reaction would go away in a day or two. Well the past few days my inner, upper eye kid is peeling. I saw what I thought was mucus which often gets caught under my eye lid and irritates my eye, and I went to pull it clear of my eye and saw that was skin and it was peeling off my eye lid. What causes this sudden change in reaction? How do I stop/prevent this? And how do I soothe the irritations caused by this?
