Allergic conjunctivitis or blocked duct

Allergic conjunctivitis or blocked duct

0
0

Good morning,

My 9-year-old daughter has had what we believe to be allergic conjunctivitis (as diagnosed by an ophthalmologist) for a long time. It always happens to him from spring to the end of summer, the rest of the year nothing.

What seems very strange to us that it only happens in one eye, and always in it. Sometimes it rarely happens to the other, but it is very very rare.

Investigating, we see that what he could have is an allergic reaction in both eyes but that in the one that turns red and with rheum inside, he may have a blocked tear duct and that is why the symptoms are "aggravated". Like the allergen in the "good" eye is swept away by tears, and not in the other, and that's why it gets worse. Could be?

Many thanks,

B.

Dear Borja,

In answer to your question, I can tell you that the obstructions of the lacrimal duct in children are more frequent of the congenital type that manifest themselves in the first months of life and they may resolve spontaneously or require a surgical procedure if necessary.

In the case of your girl, she may have an allergic basis that responds to her manifestation in the summer or summer season. As for the asymmetry of the clinical signs, the ideal would be to check the tear duct during an ophthalmological visit, also inquiring about his ophthalmological and otorhinolaryngological antecedents, since it is an area that is strongly linked to alterations in the lacrimal duct.

We hope we have been of help to your concerns, we recommend that you visit your trusted ophthalmologist or you can come to our center where we will be delighted to assist you.

Greetings,
