I have recurring conjunctivitis or blephoritis (not sure which one) in my right eye, i can get rid of it with antibiotic drops, but it comes back again two or three days after i stop using it, this has happened about three or four times.
Dont know how it first started, but i think it was because i stupidly wore my monthly disposable contacts for two months instead.
Can anyone shed some light on wat they think the cause might be? I'm afraid it might be the contacts, although i've used several fresh pairs since. I've been wearing them for the past rwo years without incident, is it possible that i just developed an allergy to them, and if this was the case, wouldnt i get it in both eyes, and not just my right eye?

Are you wearing your contacts while treating yourself? If so, that is the problem. You should not wear your contacts until you have finished all your medication, then start with a new pair.
