allergy eyes

my eyes were really itchy yesterday and now they are all puffy

i cleaned my eyelids with some special wipes they sell at the drugstore. but now i have no makeup on today (EEK!!) and my eyes (mainly my eyelids!!) are starting to feel itchy again. booooo

anyone else deal with this?

ME! I put cold compresses on them and my doctor has prescribed steroid drops for when they are really bad. The steroids usually bring the puffiness and itching down within 24 hours. The drop I use is called Alrex. You might want to ask your MD about it.
The allergy eye drops Elistat and Pataday are really good too.

ahh thank you! can i just go to any dr or i need to go to an eye doctor?

i only had an eye reaction once before and i went to eye dr and he gave me a steroid ointment. but that was YEARS ago and i cant find it

are the drops you mentioned OTC?

Yes!! I hate allergy eyes. I usually put a cold compress on for awhile and that helps. I'm on OTC allergy meds- the tylenol severe allergy is SO good and doesn't cause drowsiness.

Nope, they are both by prescription. Your primary doctor can probably give them to you. If not, you can always go always to go an eye doc or an allergist. Good luck ! Definitely get meds asap, they will help you so much.
