What is the best solution for hayfever eyes?

Avoid the cause: In most cases one can find out what they are reacting to, but sometimes they cannot avoid what it is. If that happens, see someone about either allergy testing or try the over the counter allergy eye drops. If they don't work see an ophthalmologist for a prescription drop with a longer action.

Allergy eyes: Hayfever results in histamine release, which causes sinus drainage and itchy, puffy, watery eyes. The best allergy eyedrops contain a combination of an antihistamine and a mast cell stabilizer. Over the counter, i recommend zaditor, which is used twice a day for 2 or 3 weeks during allergy season (now). Some excellent, long-acting, once-a-day allergy drops are Pataday and lastacaft (alcaftadine).
