Allergic conjunctivitis.

The fact that symptoms are in both eyes with watery discharge, no vision changes, and intense itching sounds mostly like allergic conjunctivitis, especially considering the swollen condition of the tarsal conjunctiva.

<h3>What is Allergic conjunctivitis?</h3>
  • An allergic reaction can result in allergic conjunctivitis, an inflammation of the conjunctiva.
  • Conjunctival inflammation may result from allergic reactions brought on, for instance, by allergens in the air.
  • Common symptoms include redness, itching, swelling, tearing, and stringy discharge.
  • Different eye drops could reduce discomfort and inflammation.

<h3>Why does allergic conjunctivitis occur?</h3>
  • When the conjunctiva swells or becomes inflamed as a result of an allergic reaction to pollen, dust mites, pet dander, mold, or other allergens, this condition is known as allergic conjunctivitis.

<h3>How is allergic conjunctivitis treated?</h3>
  • ice compress.
  • synthetic tears eye drops or oral medicines for allergies (over-the-counter or prescription).
  • Immunotherapy for allergies.

<h3>How long does  last before it goes away?</h3>
  • Although they often go away within 24 hours of the allergen being removed, symptoms can be severe.
  • Seasonal allergic conjunctivitis (SAC) is a type of ocular allergy that typically manifests as lesser but more enduring symptoms during a certain pollen season (s).
