Beautiful springtime weather inevitably brings scratchyeyes, swollen eyes and itchy eyes in Charleston, South Carolina. If you wear contact lenses, it’s virtually impossible
to keep them in your eyes when you are constantly rubbing them.
Here are a couple of tips to help you through the allergy season:
- If you’re using eye drops to relieve the discomfort, make sure you take your lenses out first and leave them out for at least ten minutes or you’ll just aggravate the condition.
- If you’re taking antihistamine that can cause dry eye you should check with your ophthalmologist who may advise switching back to glasses for the duration.
If wearing your glasses for the entire springtime season doesn't sound appealing, another option is to have LASIK vision correction. While LASIK
won’t prevent you from having eye irritation during the spring, it may allow
you to enjoy this season without the need for corrective lenses.
At Charleston Cornea & Refractive Surgery,
our advanced LASIK lasers may help to alter the shape of your cornea to correct
your nearsightedness, farsightedness or astigmatism. Many patients can even
achieve 20/20 vision after LASIK, allowing them to live life without glasses or
contacts.
The only way to know for sure if you are a good candidate
for LASIK is by scheduling a free LASIK Consultation in Charleston. Contact us today to schedule your consultation at 843-856-5275 or charlestoncornea.com.
