One of my eyes is constantly irritated (foreign body sensation) and the upper eyelid only is often swollen to almost double the size of the other one. I use Restasis and, on very bad days (which seem to have no rhyme or reason), also use steroid eyedrops prescribed by my doctor (prednisolone?). NOTHING seems to help. I don't have rosacea on my face or in the other eye. I don't have blepharitis (no crusting, watering, red rims, etc.). I don't have any allergies that I know of (and can't imagine how that could affect one eye but never the other anyway). I don't even think this eye is particularly dry, since on very bad days when my eyelid goes berserk, the Restasis is useless. I just have one very, very angry eye that is always irritated, and one very swollen upper eyelid that is sometimes so swollen that my eye looks as if it's half-closed. I have visited at least half a dozen opthamologists who have run all the standard tests, and all of them tell me that my eyes are in perfect health (and course my eyelid is always fine when I have an appointment!). Please help!
