[Northern Xinjiang Science Popularization] What to do if your eyes itch in spring?

In addition to the common dry eye problem, spring itchy eyes may also be caused by allergic conjunctivitis. Allergic conjunctivitis is mainly manifested by itchy eyes, red and swollen eyelids, conjunctival congestion and edema, increased tears or white secretions; some patients also have symptoms such as nasal congestion, itchy nose, runny nose, and sneezing.

After the spring comes, the pollen in the air increases, and it is easy to invade people's eyes, skin and respiratory system when blown by the wind. People with allergies are at high risk. The most fundamental measure to prevent allergic conjunctivitis is to "stay away from allergens". Avoid staying in the countryside or the wild for a long time during the pollen transmission season. Pay special attention to eye protection in case of severe weather such as haze and sandstorms. People with allergies can take mast cell stabilizers in advance to prevent the occurrence of allergic conjunctivitis, and change clothes and shoes in time after returning home. Wash your hands and face frequently, do not rub your eyes with your hands, and wear masks and goggles in environments with a lot of hair, dust and pollen. It is best not to wear contact lenses, or try to shorten the wearing time.

Once an allergic reaction occurs, if the symptoms are mild, you can apply artificial tears locally to flush and dilute the allergens, or use cold compresses on the eyes to shrink local blood vessels, reduce the leakage of substances in the blood vessels, and alleviate symptoms. If the symptoms worsen, go to a regular medical institution for treatment in time.
