Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
If the eyes become markedly irritated at certain times of the year, it is advisable to review it calmly before it becomes bothersome. Vernal conjunctivitis, also called vernal keratoconjunctivitis, is an allergic inflammation of the conjunctiva that tends to intensify in warm seasons and mainly affects children and young people.
Common symptoms:
- Intense itching in the eyes.
- Redness and tearing.
- A foreign-body sensation and discomfort in the presence of light.
Which specialist treats it? The ophthalmologist is the one who evaluates the conjunctiva and guides eye care. In the face of discomfort that returns each season, the most advisable course is to have it assessed by a professional who examines the eyes directly.
