First I would not recommend anybody with allergies to wear latex gloves for a extended period of time since you can develop allergies (sometimes severe anaphylaxis) once a exposure limit is reached... Nitrile gloves are a good alternative and you can cut the finger parts off the gloves and poke a few holes in them to enhance the breathability. Additionally, I'd try to avoid using soap whenever possible, I use the gloves when in the shower and odorless hand sanitizer when possible but be warned it might burn a little.
I also found that using a water softener eliminated the eczema from my hands for around 10 years, it came back though but was never as bad.
