Duration | Rash around the eyes

Duration

The duration of an eye rash depends on what kind of rash it is and how it is treated. However, most rashes are temporary and last from a few days to weeks. Allergic rashes can disappear within hours or days, whereas shingles heals completely within a few weeks with treatment.

Diseases with chronically recurring courses, such as neurodermatitis, can show courses of several months. They are characterized by better and worse disease phases. Other infections of the skin around the eyes also show rather short courses of disease within a few days and weeks.
