Allergic Red Eye Treatments

Allergic Red Eye Treatments-
Avoid triggers, the most common way to treat eye allergies is to avoid the substances, or antigens, things that are causing your symptoms (dander, dust, grasses, etc.)
- Cold Compresses- apply compresses to closed eyes for 5 to 10 minutes several times per day.
- Chilled Eye Drops- keep a bottle of doctor recommended artificial tears for instillation, it just feels better.
- Prescribed eye drops- there are drops that have both anti-histaminic and mast cell destabilization as their properties, check with your optometrist or visit our website at www.drrsterling.com
- Steroid drops- there are times that steroids might be used to “quiet” the allergic reaction
