In the same way your hands can spread germs, they can also spread allergens, and if you spend much time outside during the spring, pollen and other allergens may become trapped in your hair. • Avoid rubbing or scratching your eyes. Consistently rubbing or scratching your eyes may lead to more serious eye problems or a damaged cornea. Purchase over-the-counter eye drops, or ask your doctor for prescription eye drops to help relieve dry or itchy eyes. • Change your bedding frequently. Allergens can stick to your bedding, further irritating your eyes. • Comprehensive Adult Eye Care • Cataract Surgery • Symfony®, Crystalens®, Tecnis® & the Toric IOL • Management of Glaucoma & Corneal Disease • Eyelid Surgery & Botox® • Laser Vision Correction • Remember that some eye conditions—dry eyes or pinkeye, to name a few—are not caused by allergies, but may be confused with allergies.
