My lower eyelid is slightly swollen and itchy. what could be causing this? and what can i do to cure it?

Allergy : The most common cause of itching is allergies. You can try cold compresses and otc zaditor (ketotifen) 2x/day. Your eye md can prescribe even stronger topical anti-histamines if this doesn't work.
