allergies

I have allergies and when im outside for only five minutes my eyes swell very big and turn really red. Eye drops and zyrtec aren't working. Any suggestions?

what eye drops? over-the counter anti-allergy eyedrops? dont use those. you probably need Rx antihistamnes and possibly even steroids.
