Monthly Article - Sullivan Optometry Q. What can I do if allergy season bothers my eyes? A. Seasonal allergies affect many of us and springtime is often the peak. The eye-related symptoms are usually: intense itchiness; redness of the eyes; and ,often, a yellowish discharge in the mornings or throughout the day. The best way to treat ocular allergies (aka allergic conjunctivitis) is with prescription eye drops rather than an oral antihistamine. One such drop for example, is Patanol; a drop which works quickly (usually in the first 24-48hrs), is easy to use (one drop twice daily) and is safe for long term use. So, if you suffer from seasonal allergies, ocular relief is easily at hand by visiting your local optometrist. |
