Eye Expert Warning on Air Pollution and
Allergy for the Eye
Allergy effects of air pollution are well know in all countries of the
world. Smoke and energy generation with coal, auto exhaust and
burning wood all contribute to poor air quality.
Allergy in the eyes can affect both the soft tissues touching the eye,
the white conjunctivia and inner eyelid, as well as the skin of the outside
of the eyelid.
Allergic conjuntivitis can cause redness of the eyes, damage the tear
film which is needed to bend light to enter the eye for normal vision, and
healthy tears that keep the eye comfortable. In addition, allergy in the
eyes can cause irritation and disabling pain.

May patients try to make their own diagnosis and treat their eyes
with old medicines they happen to have in a suitcase or drawer. In some
cases, using the wrong medicine in the eye can lead to blindness.
Dr. Wolff recommends anyone with a red eye, pain, decreased vision
or irritation that last more than a day, to seek a skilled Ophthalmologist
for exam, diagnosis and treatment.
“Allergic conjunctivitis can cause disabling pain in the eyes,
irritation, decrease vision and impair daily function.”
Finally, it's a good idea to make an appointment to talk to your
healthcare professional to get an accurate diagnosis and together develop
a customized treatment plan to take care of that pain in your back.
