How to wear contact lens allergy to do?

Among the various discomfort reactions of wearing contact lenses, foreign body sensation and inflammation are the most common. However, recently author found that a few friends reaction, wearing contact lenses but caused allergies, what is this?

In terms of material, contact lenses are unlikely to cause allergies, because the lenses themselves are not at high risk of making allergies. However, there are still a few people who are sure that they are actually wearing contact lenses, and there may be several reasons for this analysis:

First, the wearer is not very likely to be allergic to the lens, but to the care solution. Although the material of the contact lenses themselves is fine, there are many ingredients in the solution that may cause allergies, such as fungicides, preservatives and so on. For friends with special constitution, the residual nursing fluid components on the lens during the wearing process directly contact the cornea and conjunctival tissue, enough to cause allergic reaction, which may be red eyes, dry itching, a large increase in secretions and so on.

Second, unhygiene leads to inflammation, and the symptoms of inflammation are similar to allergy, so we confuse the two. Under normal circumstances, when encountering uncomfortable symptoms, it is recommended that we do not diagnose by themselves, or to the regular hospital for a detailed examination, clear the reason is good symptomatic treatment. In fact, ensuring hygiene is not only about cleaning hands or eyes, but also about many pollutants in the air. Catkin, pollen and even haze weather will bury a lot of allergic risks in the environment.

Third, it may also be completely reversed the cause and effect, the body has a mild allergic reaction, wearing glasses only aggravated the symptoms were found. When body resistance drops during seasons, or taking certain drugs, mild allergic reactions are very common and may not be noticed. But if wearing contact lenses at this time, due to the direct friction on the tissue cells, will inevitably aggravate the inflammatory response, so that people mistakenly identify the culprit as contact lenses.

No matter what kind of allergy is caused by, continuing to wear contact lenses during the allergy will lead to more and more severe symptoms, so we must immediately stop wearing contact lenses, timely medical treatment, look for the cause of allergy, and follow the doctors advice for treatment!
