What causes redness and itching in the eye?

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I understand your concern.

There are several causes for the redness of the eyes, primarily allergy, infection, inflammation, and dry eyes, among others.

1. Redness and itching can be due to allergy.
2. Redness, pain, watering, and decreased vision can be due to infection.
3. Redness and pain can be due to inflammation.
4. Redness and foreign body sensations can be due to dryness.

If there is only redness without any other symptoms, it might be normal due to slight exposure to dust, temperature changes, or air, especially in the morning. Stress can also cause redness. You can follow these measures to maintain eye health:

1. Blink frequently.
2. Wash your eyes with fresh water.
3. Apply cold compresses.
4. Use lubricating eye drops like Carboxymethylcellulose.

These measures can help keep your eyes healthy, although they may not directly address redness, which often does not require treatment on its own. That said, it is advisable to consult a local ophthalmologist for a proper examination and appropriate treatment.

I hope this information is helpful to you.

Thanks for using icliniq, and have a nice day.
