Health Tip: Easing Eye Allergies
By LadyLively on April 18, 2016
When your eyes turn red, water and itch, it can make you miserable.
The American Academy of Ophthalmology offers these suggestions for coping with eye allergies:
- Stay away from things that bother you, such as pollen, mold, dust and pets.
- Don’t rub your eyes. Use over-the-counter artificial tears or an eye drop that contains an antihistamine.
- Take a decongestant medication. If it also contains an antihistamine, it could make you sleepy.
- Talk to your doctor about the possibility of getting allergy shots.
