ALLERGIC
CONJUNCTIVITIS
WHAT?
• Allergic conjunctivitis usually happens when a person's eyes come into contact with
an allergen, a substance like pollen or mold spores that makes the body's immune
system overreacting.
RISK FACTORS
• People who have allergies are more likely to develop allergic conjunctivitis.
• Allergies affect people of all ages, though they are more common in children and
young adults. If you have allergies and live in locations with high pollen counts, you
are more susceptible to allergic conjunctivitis.
CAUSES
• Dust
• Pollen
• Animal dander
• Perfume
SYMPTOMS
• Redness
• Burning
• Watery discharge from the eye
• Itching
• Swollen, red eyelids
• Sensitivity to bright light
TYPE OF ALLERGIC CONJUNCTIVITIS
A. Acute allergic conjunctivitis:This is a short-term condition that is more
common during allergy season. Your eyelids suddenly swell, itch, and burn. You may also have a
watery nose.
B. Chronic allergic conjunctivitis:
Chronic allergic conjunctivitis can occur year-round. It is a milder
response to allergens like food, dust, and animal dander.
DIAGNOSIS
• Physical examination
• Skin test
• Blood test
TREATMENT
• MEDICATION:
Oral antihistaminic drug
Anti-inflammatory eye drops
Steroids eye drops
HOME CARE
• close windows when the pollen count is high
• keep your home dust-free
• use an indoor air purifier
• avoid exposure to harsh chemicals, dyes, and perfumes
PRECAUTIONS
