Allergic Conjunctivitis
Allergic conjunctivitis is the inflammation of the conjunctiva, the membrane that covers the eye and the inner surface of the eyelid, caused by a reaction to allergens such as pollen, dust, or animal dander.
Common symptoms: eye itching, redness, tearing, a burning sensation, and swelling of the eyelids, often in both eyes.
Common causes: contact with substances to which the person is sensitive, frequently tied to specific seasons or environments.
Which specialist treats it? The ophthalmologist evaluates the health of the eye and the allergist helps identify the triggers. If the itching and redness are recurrent or intense, it is advisable to have a professional assess your case.
