What to do if your eyes are itchy?

In daily life, when the eyes are particularly itchy, most people will think that they have trachoma. Trachoma is an infectious disease. Due to the improvement of sanitary conditions, this disease is now rare around us. Itchy eyes are more common for three reasons: first, inflammatory stimulation of the conjunctiva; second, eye fatigue caused by excessive eye use; third, allergic conjunctivitis.

Allergic conjunctivitis is an inflammatory reaction caused by the conjunctiva being allergic to certain external substances. The conjunctiva is commonly known as the “white of the eye”. It is often exposed to the outside and can easily come into contact with some allergic substances in the air and cause allergic reactions, eventually causing inflammation. Common allergens in the air include pollen, dust, animal feathers, etc. Spring is the day when flowers bloom, and there are often pollen flying in the sky and poplar catkins floating in the sky; spring brings warm winds, which also bring allergens in the air to our eyes. If you want to go out at this time, you must pay attention to eye protection to prevent and reduce allergic substances from entering the eyes. Specific methods can be: 1. Don’t go out in windy weather; 2. When there are poplar catkins and other objects flying in the air, don’t look up, lower your head as much as possible, and squint your eyes to prevent such substances from falling into your eyes. ; ⒊ If possible, you can wear light-colored sunglasses. This is not only beautiful and harmonious with the breath of spring, but also prevents pollen dust and other substances from blowing directly into the eyes.

The most common symptom of allergic conjunctivitis is itching, even a severe itching; followed by red eyes, tearing, and foreign body sensation. If you have these symptoms, do not rub your eyes too much, and do not wash your eyes with salt water. You should use local anti-allergic drugs. A nutritionist from Yimolecular Biotechnology reminds you to use Yimolecular lutein products, which are very effective in treating itchy eye conjunctiva.
