Eye Allergies

If you have eye allergies, you may experience a variety of symptoms. Some of these symptoms include:

• Watery and itchy eyes
• Swelling and redness
• Blurry vision
• Light sensitivity
• Burning sensation

Eye allergies can highly impact your quality of life. They can interfere with work, everyday activities, and your overall wellbeing. If you are exposed to allergens for an extended period of time, it can also lead to chronic eye conditions. For this reason, it is important not to ignore eye allergies and visit our optometrist for treatment immediately.

There are certain strategies that you can try to manage your eye allergies and reduce your symptoms. Some of these strategies include:

• Avoiding Allergens: One of the best things you can do is to avoid allergens. Keeping windows closed, using air purifiers, and cleaning your home regularly can help ease your symptoms.
• Using Over-the-Counter Medications: There are artificial tears and eye drops that can be purchased at any pharmacy. While they do not treat eye allergies, they can provide the necessary relief.
• Visiting Our Optometry: Our optometrist can diagnose and treat various eye allergies. Along with that, we can offer effective management strategies and prescribe the necessary medication that can alleviate your discomfort.

If you notice that your eye allergy symptoms are getting worse, we recommend visiting us as soon as possible. Our optometrist will perform a series of tests to determine the root cause of your discomfort and create a personalized treatment plan. In addition, we can check for any conditions that can cause similar symptoms.
