Scratching the Surface of Itchy, Watery Eyes
17 Oct 2021
PUBLIC HEALTH & WELLBEING THEATRE

Watery and itchy eyes are both common symptoms of allergy and dry eye disease. How do we know the difference and what recommendations can we make? This presentation will discuss how both dry eye and ocular allergy are on the increase and how sometimes the two conditions can co-exist. It will consider the signs and symptoms of both and discuss how to make a differential diagnosis that will enable us to make effective recommendations using some of the OTC management options available in pharmacies.
