Itching in eyes

2017-09-10 11:10:03
I changed my contact lens brand a few weeks back. Started having itching in eyes after a 4-5 days. Since a week I've been wearing specs but wore lenses for 1 day. The itching was there even when I wore specs and aggravated within 2hrs of wearing lenses. I have also been using itone drops but to no relief.
