I'm sorry to hear that you're experiencing irritation and whitening of the skin in the corner of your eye. This could be due to several reasons, including skin irritation from topical products, allergic reactions, or other dermatological conditions.

One possible cause is the use of certain skin creams that contain ingredients like hydroquinone, corticosteroids, or retinoids. These can sometimes cause side effects such as skin irritation, redness, burning, or whitening, especially if they accidentally come into contact with sensitive areas like the eyes. If you have been using a cream with these ingredients near your eye, it might explain your symptoms.

Here are some important points to consider:

• Avoid applying any creams or ointments too close to the eyes.
• If a product accidentally gets into your eye area, rinse thoroughly with water.
• Protect your skin from sun exposure, as some treatments can increase sensitivity.
• If irritation persists, worsens, or is accompanied by pain or vision changes, seek medical attention promptly.

Given your symptoms, I recommend consulting a dermatologist (skin specialist) who can examine the affected area, identify the cause, and suggest appropriate treatment to relieve irritation and prevent further skin changes.

If you experience severe pain, swelling, vision problems, or signs of infection, please seek urgent medical care immediately.To narrow down potential causes, we will need some more information.Please tell me your age and gender.
