3 Tips for Red Itchy Eyes (Eye Allergy)

Red, itchy eyes are often caused by allergies, a condition known as allergic conjunctivitis. When the eyes encounter allergens like pollen, dust mites, pet dander, or mold, the body's immune response releases histamine, leading to inflammation, itching, and redness. To manage eye allergies at home, consider applying cold compresses to reduce swelling and soothe irritation. Antihistamine eye drops can block the effects of histamine, while decongestant eye drops help relieve redness. Minimizing exposure to allergens, using lubricating artificial tears, and keeping windows closed during peak allergy seasons can also help alleviate symptoms.
