question about allergic conjunctivitis - Allergies Message Board

tordek · 08-25-2006, 02:23 PM

I used a large variety of eye drops and it seems that they just prevent the symptoms of the eye being pink.. yet I get uncomfortable sensation in my eyes and the feeling something is stuck in my eyes when i'm going outside or exposed to the allergan

. after using the drops I also get a bad sensation in my eyes than before.. even though I Feel that it could might help abit with itchiness.
My prime allergy symptoms that are killing me are the eye pains and uncomfortable sensation that things are stuck in my eyes and the sinus headaches that are caused by congestion

.
Tried everything and no use really, I`m so depressed by the non effective market of allergy medicine and I`m feeling like hell for half a year already

does anybody feel the way I do?

I have had allergic conjunctivitis for about the last 10 years. Many of the meds I am on for my allergies also cause me to dry up so much that I have been diagnosed with chronic dry eye. I am receiving treatment for both the allergy eyes and chronic dry eye. No solutions yet. My eyes still burn and feel gritty, but with the new treatments, they are red less often and I have fewer of those white mucous strings and a lot less matting of my eyes in the morning.

If you haven't done it yet, I would consult an opthomologist about your problem.
