Allergy

Is hyper immune response to minor allergens

 

types of allergic eye conditions

1. Atopic

2. Vernal

 

 

Symptoms of allergy

soreness, itching, redness of the eyes and eyelids and occasionally blurry vision. The conditions are very similar to eczema but affect the membrane of the eye and inside the eye lids (the conjunctiva) instead of the skin. Like eczema, it can continue for some time (months to years) but most young people grow out of it.

What causes it?

If you or your family have allergic diseases such as eczema or asthma, your child is more likely to get an eye allergy.

 

 

Why allergy

Everyone has an immune system (for instance antibodies) which helps to fight off germs that could cause infections. Allergic diseases happen when the immune system reacts to harmless substances like dust or pollen. In some people it affects breathing (asthma), the skin (eczema) and, less commonly, the eyes. Allergy tests are not helpful. This is because most people affected have allergies to many things in the environment but, as with asthma and eczema, knowing this does not help treat the problem.

 

Treatment

Anti-allergy drops need to be used regularly every day. They should not be stopped unless you have been advised to do so. This applies even if your child’s eyes feel better, as the problem may return or even cause eye damage. Some children need drops only for a few weeks in hot weather; some need them during the whole spring and summer, while others need them all year round.

If there is eczema on the eyelid skin, you could be asked to use cream or ointment to treat it. Please note-it is very important to discourage your child from rubbing or scratching their eyes as this will make the condition worse.

Sometimes, the edges of the eyelids are very sore. This is a sign of blepharitis and your child may need some treatment for this (see blepharitis leaflet for more information). If your child’s eyes are very inflamed or the window of the eye (cornea) is affected, this can affect their sight and stronger drops such as steroids may be prescribed. Steroids usually make eyes feel better quickly, but they can have side effects so it is important that these drops are used
