I get conjunctivitis so often. How should I manage it?

I'm worried because I've been going to the ophthalmologist a lot these days because of conjunctivitis.

When I was young, I used to get styes a lot.

As an adult, I often get conjunctivitis.

For reference, I don't wear contact lenses and I haven't had LASIK or LASEK surgery recently.

 

At first, my eyes were itchy so I rubbed them without thinking, and the next day they got really red and I got conjunctivitis. I only rubbed them for a little while, but my eyes got bloodshot right away, so I realized that my eyes were weak, so I never touch my eyes again!! I wash my hands often, and when my eyes are really itchy, I put a cotton pad on my eyes and massage them.

I'm trying my best not to touch it.

When you have conjunctivitis, if you take medicine and use eye drops, it will get better in a week.

But strangely, after I got it once, I started getting conjunctivitis very often.

 

I've been there four times recently...

 

In particular, the symptoms of congestion and swelling are the worst. It's not just slightly red, it's bloodshot red, and once the eyes swell... they swell like a mosquito bite.

 

 

Lately, I don't remember rubbing my eyes, and I'm really careful about my hygiene, but the conjunctivitis symptoms keep coming back periodically, which is frustrating.

And when you have conjunctivitis, it's hard to even open your eyes in the morning.

My eyes are so clogged with eye boogers that I can't open them properly. I look in the mirror and think, "Oh, I have conjunctivitis again." And of course, it's true.

And when I have conjunctivitis, I cry so often. Even when I'm still, tears flow down.

When I went to the ophthalmologist, I asked and he said that when there is inflammation in the eye, tears are produced to get rid of the inflammation.

So I always carry tissues with me and wipe my tears...

And what worries me the most is that I keep getting conjunctivitis, so I'm worried that my eyesight will deteriorate...

I already use my smartphone a lot...

 

At the ophthalmologist, they asked if I had rhinitis, and when I said yes, they said that if I had rhinitis, I was more prone to conjunctivitis. They said it was allergic conjunctivitis, but rhinitis isn't something that can be completely cured.

So how should I manage this?

How do people who frequently get conjunctivitis like me manage it?

I've been using this method and now I don't get conjunctivitis anymore! Is there a way like this?

If you have any management methods, please share them with me.
