4 Disease Overview

Allergic conjunctivitis is an allergic reaction of the eye caused by pollen, dust in the living room, and animal hair. These pathogens are called allergens. The conjunctiva is a tissue that is susceptible to external *** and foreign bodies, and room dust and pollen are easy to attach to, making it easy for allergic reactions to occur. Symptoms of allergic conjunctivitis begin with an itchy eyelid. Gradually, there will be pain when opening and closing the eyes, and discomfort from a foreign body in the front of the eyes. If this is allowed to continue, conjunctival congestion and eyelid edema may occur, and if the condition worsens further, the transparent cornea may turn purplish-red around the periphery, which is a very serious symptom. It requires immediate medical attention at the itchy stage.

5 Description of the disease

Allergic conjunctivitis, an inflammation caused by hypersensitivity of the eye tissue to allergens. There are two types: rapid-onset and delayed-onset.

6 Symptoms and signs

Acute onset, mostly caused by local application of drug allergy, itchy eyes, may have a foreign body sensation, accompanied by conjunctival discharge. Eyelid redness, swelling or eczema-like changes. Conjunctival edema, congestion, lid conjunctiva *** hyperplasia, follicle formation, severe cases can cause conjunctival epithelial exfoliation. Some patients may be accompanied by systemic allergies.

7 Etiology of the disease

This section refers exclusively to those conjunctivitis that are allergic due to exposure to drugs or other antigens.

① rapid-onset: sensitization of the original pollen, corneal contact lenses and their cleaning solutions;

② delayed-onset: usually caused by drugs, such as atropine, neomycin, broad-spectrum antibiotics, and pupil constrictors.

8 Pathophysiology

This section specifically refers to those conjunctivitis that are allergic due to exposure to drugs or other antigens.

① rapid-onset: sensitization of the original pollen, corneal contact lenses and their cleaning solution, etc.;

② delayed-onset: generally caused by drugs, such as atropine, neomycin, broad-spectrum antibiotics, and pupil constrictor.

9 Diagnostic tests

According to the history of more obvious allergen exposure, the symptoms quickly subside after getting out of contact; eosinophilia found in the smear of the conjunctival sac secretion, etc. can be diagnosed.

10 Treatment

Find the allergen and avoid re-exposure. Topical glucocorticoid ophthalmic solution (such as 0.1% dexamethasone), vasoconstrictor (0.1% epinephrine or 1% ephedrine). Accompanied by eyelid skin redness, swelling, papules, can be 2% -3% boric acid water wet compress. In recent years, the development of several new, such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs 0.5% ketoglobate aminobutanetriol, antihistamines 0.05% emetine fumarate, as well as cell membrane stabilizers nadolomide sodium ophthalmic, can significantly reduce symptoms. In severe cases, systemic allergy drugs can be added, such as paracetamol, restorative, antihistamines or glucocorticoids.

11 Special tips

1, improve the living environment, especially air quality or indoor temperature, so that the impact of allergens to reduce;

2, pay attention to the nutrition and exercise, regular life and work, strengthen the body.

3, the use of local cold compresses or ice packs on the eyes to reduce discomfort, the use of artificial tears local eye spots, can also be used to rinse to significantly reduce the concentration of allergens and inflammatory factors to improve the symptoms.
