In the pollen-rich breezes of the Pacific Northwest, ocular (eye) allergies can wreak havoc on vision. The most common types of eye allergies are seasonal and perennial (year round) allergic conjunctivitis. Seasonal allergic conjunctivitis (hay fever conjunctivitis) is the more common type, accounting for the majority of allergic conjunctivitis cases.
Living with allergies includes routines of medications and behaviors designed to lesson their symptoms. Getting them under control is enough, and adding poor vision to the equation has long been a burden.
But even contact lenses have come a long way in this area. The use of daily disposable lenses, such as DAILIES® AquaComfort Plus® contact lenses, help reduce ocular allergy symptoms by eliminating exposure to lens care product preservatives and minimizing exposure to allergens that can build up on lenses that are reused over a period of time.
