HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, this could be occupation hazard the welding rods produces smoke, fumigates the surrounding this could induce the allergic symptoms in eye and throat, anti allergic medicine helps a lot, with the time welders gets used to and became immune, then this thing does not happens to them, hope this information helps you have good day.
