I have a eye problem that i think is due to allergies so i get weekly shots in hopes of getting rid of this 5 years puffy, droopy, painful eye problems that was recommended by my allergist. How effective are these shots? Will it help with my eye issue?
Hello, Thank you for asking at Chat Doctor. I went through your history and would like to make suggestions for you as follows:1. I would like to know more details about your eye symptoms and how allergies were diagnosed.2. Allergic conjunctivitis/rhino conjunctivitis responds better to allergy shots (immunotherapy). Usual symptoms are eye itching, animation, redness, etc.3. Swelling around eyes, if due to allergic angioedema, may respond to allergy shots.4. However, most of the eye allergies do not have eye pain. So I would like to know what is the cause of painful eyes.5. It requires very detailed information about your problems, previous treatments, investigations, etc. to make more specific suggestions. Hope above information will be helpful to you. Should you have any further query, please feel free to ask at Chat Doctor. Wish you the best of the health ahead. Thank you & Regards.
