Creating Unique Experiences Using the

 

 

 

Many people, particularly in Central Indiana, suffer from allergies.  Some of the symptoms of allergies are as follows:

• Red, irritated eyes
• Dry eyes
• Itching and burning eyes
• Dry, scaly eyelids
• Uncomfortable contact lenses

There are a number of treatments for allergic responses in your eyes:

• Over-The-Counter (OTC) eyedrops
• Prescribed eyedrops
• Oral medications
• Changing the type of contact lenses you are wearing
• Changing your contact lens cleaning regimen
  
• Reducing the hours you wear your contacts

At your eye exam we will discuss options for your particular situation and design a treatment plan specifically for you.

We strongly recommend 1-Day contact lenses for all patients with allergy problems.  You will wear a fresh, sterile lens everyday.  This reduces complications from solutions, oil and mucous the lens picks up, and other potential irritants.  1-Day lenses are also very affordable in the 90 lens packs.  Ask us about them at your eye exam.
