How Do Spring Allergies Affect the Eyes?

Allergies can have a wide variety of effects on your body and health. Eyes are often heavily affected. Allergies can cause the eyes to water and itch. In some cases, your eyes may feel dry as well. Although it may seem like this is not a big deal at first, or something that you just have to accept and live with, the truth is allergies can have a negative effect long-term on your eye health.

If allergies continue to affect your eyes, you may damage your eyes by constantly rubbing or scratching at your eyes. Getting allergies dealt with is an important part of your eye care.

How Can Our Eye Doctor Help?

If you are having ongoing issues with allergies, you will need to schedule an appointment with an eye doctor. If no damage has occurred to your eyes, the eye doctor should be able to develop a treatment plan that will address the allergies and help you find relief.

If you think your eyes have been damaged due to scratching and rubbing, you may need to see an ophthalmologist or an eye surgeon. These professionals can examine your eyes for damage and develop a treatment plan.
