Allergic conjunctivitis | Ophthalmology | Signs and Symptoms | Diagnosis and Treatment

Allergic conjunctivitis is an immune response that occurs when the eye comes in contact with an irritating substance, known as an allergy.
• Allergy can involve any age group though more common in children
• Itching leads to rubbing of eyes which may become a vicious cycle and can lead to other ocular problems
• The function of the immune system is to defend the body against harmful invaders, such as bacteria and viruses.
• In an eye allergy, the immune system mistakes an allergy for a dangerous substance, causing the immune system to overreact and produce antibodies called immunoglobulin (IgE)
• These antibodies travel to the cells in the eye, and in turn, causes it to release histamines and other chemicals in an effort to protect the eyes.
• It is this chemical reaction that causes the symptoms associated with the condition.
• An eye allergy may happen at any time of the year. However, it is common in the spring, summer, and fall months when vegetations such as trees, grasses, and plants are in bloom.
.
CAUSES

Meri ankhein bhi alergi hoti hai... yeh jo white hote hai bahut nikal te hai aakhon se... aur ab akhein ki jo colour hai jo black hai woh chang horahi hai blue horahi hai... aisa kyun hota hai kya yeh normal hai. Ousi alergi ki waja se horahi hai? Mujhe bahut dar lagta hai.
