Allergic Conjunctivitis
Allergic conjunctivitis is inflammation of the conjunctiva, the thin membrane covering the white of the eye. It is triggered by an allergen rather than an infection, and usually brings redness, itching and watering in both eyes.
Key points
- It can persist for months and often appears alongside hay fever symptoms such as sneezing or a runny nose.
- The swelling and itching are driven by histamine released in the conjunctiva, so antihistamine eye drops may help calm the reaction.
Medicines listed for Allergic Conjunctivitis
The listed product contains Olopatadine, an antihistamine and mast-cell stabiliser supplied as 0.1% eye drops. Olopatadine works by blocking histamine receptors in the conjunctiva, which may reduce the allergic response that causes redness and itching.
