Allergies: If the filter on the air condition is not changed as scheduled or the air vents are not clean you could be having allergy symptoms. Try over the counter allergy eye drops and or allergy tablets. If that is not enough to help with your symptoms, you may need a small air cleaner next to you.

Sounds like classic: Cold uritcaria.This occurs when a person can be considered "allergic" to cold temperatures, manifesting itself in various ways, skin swelling being one of the major reactions such as your eyes.You may consider a Cold Stimulation Test from an Allergy specialist.You may also consider taking an antihistamine like loratadine or cetirizine, or even ranitidine before your shift starts to see if it helps
