Medical Conditions - Itchy Eyes

Itchy eyes can develop as a result of irritation, allergy, and infection. Irritants like dust and smoke, allergens like pollens, eye conditions like conjunctivitis, dry eyes, blepharitis, excessive screen time, etc., result in itchy eyes. Some people develop allergic eye reactions to contact lens solutions. They may or may not be accompanied by excessive tears, swelling, redness, and pain. As a result, itching necessitates rubbing the eyes, which should not be done as it may increase the chances of further infection and damage the eye.
