Ooh, a reply!

Yes, I get terrible itching and swelling too. I feel like pulling my eyelashes out sometimes. I don't really wear any eye-make up these days because it just seems to exacerbate it 9 times out of 10. I've got various steroid-based creams but I find it's really tricky with the skin on my eyelids and can often just make it worse for whatever reason. It's very annoying. I saw my GP yesterday and he gave me some greasy dry-eye ointment called Lubriderm which is supposed to go IN my eyes but actually ends up oozing all over my eyes and it actually seemed to help with the dryness and soreness.
