The ointment you are using has steroid and may cause harm on long term use. So stop it. Stop rubbing your eyes, more you rub more itiching may occur. Besides it may lead to inturning or out turning of eyelids and lead to more complications. Try applying coconut oil or castor oil over eye lids and slowly massage. You can wash it off after sometime. But do not use string soap. This can prevent drying of skin around eyes and prevent itiching.
