How do you protect yourself when you get sick through your eyes first?

I started to notice a pattern when it's a viral infection, my eyes will get watery and red for a few days and turn back to normal, then a few days later im sick. That's actually happened 1st when I had covid and my doctor just said i had allergies because I showed no other problems 5 days later Boom! Then it happened again the 2nd time I had covid, and when I had flu and even last month and here it is again. Im messed up if I don't wear a mask or do. Right now my eye is pink, watery, and itchy and I just took a pic. It's different sizes, so this ain't even the battle yet but it's either coming soon or actually allergies...

For me its my tongue. I have something in the family where my tongue has some white stuff on it that gives me a bad taste in my mouth but its normally suppressed by my immune system. So whenever my immune system is weak I begin to taste that.

Last winter I managed to avoid being sick entirely based off some info I heard online that vitamin D pills are dosed incorrectly and to low. So I "overdosed" them.

Here was my recipe that worked for me. I had one bottle of multi vitamins and one bottle of vitamin d pills next to my bed. Whenever I'd go to bed in flu season I'd take some depending on how I felt and what I was going to do. So i'd take anywhere from the recommended dose which is one of each up to 3 vitamin d's and two multivitamins.

I also had moments where my eyes were watery, my throat could get sore or i'd have a stuffed nose but with this and rest it didn't progress into an actual flu.

Listen crazy lady, that’s not how it works unless you’re letting people cough on your eyeballs

People are coughing and sneezing not in my eyeball, but in the air
Around me
Last month the lady that I suspect gave it to me was hacking right behind me
