Eye Allergies

If you suffer from eye allergies, you aren’t alone. Many people all over the world deal with eye redness, eye itchiness, and other symptoms of allergies every day. At Warm Springs Optometric Group in Fremont, CA, we want to help you find relief and practice eye allergy prevention. Here are some tips to help you. 

Eye Allergies

Make an Appointment with Your Optometrist

If you have allergy symptoms, you should also make sure that they aren’t a sign of some other condition. Going to an optometrist can help you eliminate some of the possible reasons and confirm that they are due to eye allergies. He or she can also provide more personalized advice and medication options than you might find elsewhere. So, if allergies are really bothering you, your first step should be to make an appointment for an eye exam.

Use Eye Drops

Over-the-counter eye drops can be a great way to get relief from eye itchiness or eye redness. If you’re dealing with mild or moderate allergy symptoms, try this step to find relief. These eye drops are available in many pharmacies, or you can ask an eye doctor on our optometry team for help at your next eye exam. While the benefits are temporary, they can be useful if the discomfort is making it difficult to focus on your tasks or sleep at night.

Keep Your Home Clean

Your allergies might have a number of causes, but some are found in homes. Dust, dirt, and animal dander can all lead to eye allergy symptoms. To help with eye allergy prevention, you should make sure that your home is as clean as possible. Regularly removing allergens from your environment can help make it less likely that you’ll have a reaction to them. Lower levels of allergens may also help to keep reactions milder than they would otherwise be. Regular cleaning or hiring a professional can make a big difference.

Stay Indoors

If you’re allergic to pollen, it may be a good idea to stay indoors during high pollen counts. If you can avoid exposure to allergens, this may help to lessen their impact on you. While you might be able to clean your indoor environment, you won’t be able to eliminate the pollen outside.
