Hi and thanks for the query,

Eye irritation if continuous falls under the table of chronic or persistent allergic conjonctivits. The treatment is usually a long term treatment that might go up to three months, might require injections of steroids and if still resistant, management plans could go over a year or deserve immune desensitization sessions by an allergist.

The infectious component must be considered carefully. Adequate local anti inflammatory drugs and antibiotics, generally Quinolones in this case should be able to eradicate the infection. Recurrence might occur due to use of inappropriate drugs or limited duration of treatment. Cultures of the discharge if abundant and persistent, to identify the causative agent and for sensitivity testing is a rare but at times useful consideration.

The opinion of an opthalmologist and an allergist, if need be, could be of great help.

Thanks and kind regards,

Bain LE, MD.

Hello,

From your query i understood that you are suffering from Allergic conjunctivitis.
There are numerous allergens that can cause allergic conjunctivitis.
It is very very difficult to identify the allergen which causing allergy to your eye.

You have to spend a lot of time in your life identify that allergen.

Always "Prevention is better than cure".

Here i advised some common measures to be protected from common household and external environmental allergies.
1. Use good air conditioner frequently to reduce indoor allergens.
it is better to keep air filter and ducts clean.
2. Please avoid pet animals.
3. Shut your windows and door to avoid outdoor air allergens.
Open only at necessary times.
4. Wear face mask, gloves while driving and walking in polluted environment.
5. it is better to take a shower when ever you return to house.It is to avoid outdoor air pollutants.
6. Keep your house and environment clean to reduce all pollutants.
