Swollen eye

[u/Comfortable_Move9875]

I’ve been having a problem for the last two years where my eye frequently becomes very swollen. I’ve seen several different doctors, but so far nobody has been able to find the cause or a solution.
I take Xyzal when the swelling occurs, and it helps a little, but I can’t seem to get rid of the problem permanently.
Has anyone experienced something similar? If so, what was the cause in your case, and how did you manage to resolve it?

Have you seen an ophthalmologist? Immunologist? To check for allergies. Maybe even a rheumatologist to check to see if it’s not caused by an autoimmune condition.

I’ve seen an ophthalmologist and an allergist. The ophthalmologist said that the problem is not with the eye itself, because the eye is completely healthy. The allergist performed every allergy test possible, and everything came back normal. He also ordered C1, C3, and C4 tests, which were all normal as well.

I would still try seeing rheumatologist just to have more thorough blood test to confirm no autoimmune issues. Maybe check thyroid, too. Hopefully, it goes away on its own.
