Doctors advise: itchy eyes caused by allergies, mostly conjunctival

Most of eye itching and eye conjunctiva, eyelid skin allergies, but sometimes less conjunctival hyperemia, if diagnosed as “allergic conjunctivitis”, lack many of the necessary basis, and so are in the habit of general practitioners diagnosed with “chronic conjunctivitis” in order to that the process is longer, often repeated characteristics, although there is no textbook on this diagnostic term, but I also agree with this diagnosis. In recent years, due to air pollution and other reasons, the composition of the air penetrate more and more, some exposure to the substance of our eyes, resulting in the increasing incidence of this type of conjunctivitis high.

As for how to treat, as with allergies, of course, first you should find the allergen, and then avoid contact with allergens, in order to achieve “cure” purposes. As a daily contact with too many things, but these things is very complex composition, exposure to air only on the number of components, they are often difficult to find allergens. Thus, we often can only be “temporary”, that is controlled with medication to treat allergy symptoms, but all this treatment even relieve symptoms such as redness, itching, etc., if the patient re-exposure to allergens, in turn a “allergic conjunctivitis, “which is the disease of chronic, recurrent causes. This commonly used drugs naphthalene Min Wei, Naphazoline eye drops, olopatadine and so on. Symptoms are very severe cases; doctors need guidance in the use of other drugs.
