My eyes started itching two years ago, both inside the eye and around. I have excema so I think it may be that. My doctor gave me eye drops and cream and although the cream stops my skin from drying out, it doesn’t stop the skin from itching. The problem stopped and my eyes only started itching again two months ago. I went to see a dermatologist, and he said there was no point in an allergy test because it’s nothing in particular from what I told him I had. I’ve since been prescribed antihistamines (allergy relief tablets) but it hasn’t improved. Would buying an itch relief cream for my eye area be effective, if it was a weak concentration one for the delicate eye area, or would that make it worse? I don’t know what else to do…

For about 2 weeks now, my dog has constantly been rubbing her eyes and they are pinkish/red around the skin on some parts of her eye lids. It also seems like her eyes are having some fluid-buildup and it’s making brown gunk or maybe just dried tears around the ends of her eyes on her fur, like we have with “eye-boogers”. I just gave her allergy relief medicine, a small dosage, just like Tendril. Plain allergy relief, no headache relief or anti-inflammatory. If it helps any, she is a full grown 50-60lb Yellow labrador of about two years of age. I had a dog before for 11 years and she never had this problem once as a yellow lab mixed with gray-hound. Are yellow labs prone to having allergies? And is it okay to give her eye-drops or that allergy relief ( Benadryl but not name-brand )? I’ve read that it’s okay but I still want more opinions.

My eyes are so dry they crack and peel. I dont mean dry and itchy eyeballs like form allergies.I mean the skin surrounding my eyes burn and hurt and peel… I moved to alaska recently and it’s extremely dry here.I am from the Tennessee and used to extreme humidity. My eyes are so dry they hurt/burn almost all the time. The rest of the skin on my face is not dry however, it is still somewhat oily. I have used 3 different facial moiturizers. babyoil, vaseline, jergens ultra healing lotion, Aveeno moisturizers, A couple avon products….nothing has worked. I am currently using bio-oil which is the most relief i can get but i cannot wear makeup with this product and have to reapply it throughout the day. My eyes stay swollen and brown/black. I am 20 years old and whatever is wrong with my eyes is making age fast. Can somebody please help me???

my b/f has the most itchy watery red eyes and he can hardly keep them open at times. he’s tried visine, allergy pills and pink eye relief drops and nothing seems to be working. Any suggestions?

VERY itchy burning eyes! I have had this for about a week and I am ready for some relief. I have itched them so much that they seem swollen and just are irritated all the time. What can i do for some relief? And what could be causing this? Is allergy season starting back up again?

Can someone please help me? I have horrible allergies. I’ve never had allergies before. It started late may of last year. I usually get them really bad in the spring and fall. Anyway, they just seem to be getting worse. I have the works: Runny/stuffy nose, cough, sore throat, dry eyes, runny eyes, eye pain, blurry vision, etc…My right eye gives me the most trouble. It leaks constantly! Never a break. I can’t even wear makeup on my eyes anymore. No eyeliner or anything. I can’t even wear cover up under my eye(s) because you can see where the makeup is and where the actual skin is. It looks horrible. On top of that, I have all these other symptoms. Like GI issues, joint/muscle pain, fatigue, etc…I’ve tried Visine (allergy relief), Visine (dry eye relief), Bauch & Lomb, Systane, And some prescription eyedrop from an eye doctor (specialist). Nothing works! Are there any home remedies or something that I can use to make my eye(s) stop running? It’s driving me crazy. Thanks!

I’m a 40 female with a 17mo baby… this started 4 years ago with a scratched cornea… intermittent waking with burning, but now it’s BOTH eyes, severe burning/gravelly feeling in eyes waking me several times every night. I’ve been using saline and similisan dry eye or allergy eye relief along with homeopathic histamine…nothing seems to be helping and it’s getting worse. Not so much a problem during the day, just when I’m sleeping. I’m guessing it’s allergies OR dry eye, but I’m not sure anymore. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have no insurance so I can’t just go from dr. to dr. until this is resolved. I would prefer not to use prescription drugs, anyway, if possible. I would like to find the cause for this and let my body heal itself.
UPDATE: Thanks to you who offered suggestions, I will try washing the laundry in plain water and see if that helps. I already use allergy-free detergent, but you never know! I also saw my chiropractor today (I’m seeing him for a birth related injury) and he adjusted my atlas/axis. Said it can cause dry eye (among other things) if it’s out of adjustment. Here’s hoping it works!

Discomfort around the eye area caused by eye allergy can now be simply treated with the use of eye drops. There are several kinds of eye drops already available in the market but it is also important to have a few understanding as to how it works and more significantly, what are they used for. So before you come to a decision to buy eye drops for your irritated eyes, let us first pin down the definite root for the discomfort you are experiencing and observe if it s really allergy.

Allergy eye drops are used for eyes infected with allergies. Frequently, eyes become irritated mostly because they are worn out, strained, or have been in contact with foreign substances like dirt. Irritations caused by these factors are just natural as they are our body’s means of reacting against unnecessary substances. Yet, if the eyes are always irritated and you always feel like sneezing or your eyes are regularly red, inflamed, and watery, medication specially formulated for these reasons is already unavoidable.
