In general, this sounds like you have 5 directions to investigate:
1. Bacterial infection. Ask a doctor for antibiotic eye drops.
2. Viral infection. Ask a doctor for antiviral drugs. Alternatively, see if it gets better or worse if you boost or weaken her immune system.
3. Yeast infection. Ask a doctor for the appropriate cream.
4. Allergy. Does Cortison make it weaker? Air purifier with hepa filter. $500 and helps against a lot of things, including some bad smells.
5. Autoimmune reaction. Ask a nearby university if they are willing to run a microarray test to see which genes are active in the eye fluid. It tends to cost $10 + 10 minutes of work if you order that for research purposes.
Edit : can't find the paper, but i remember that covid increases your risks of eye fungi. Something about black mushrooms in India
- faeyanpiraat 5y agoHow long can the 1-2-3 infections in your list persist? Shouldn’t viral infections get eliminated by the body eventually?

- majjam 5y agoThank you for your reply, it does fit with allergens as you say (reduced immune system helped so we dont think viral or bacterial). I'll take a look at the auto immune tests - we do have a good university nearby so may be in luck :) As for the fungal issues with Covid, I recall that was because people took massive doses of steroids depressing their immune systems, so I don't think that's the cause here.
