Eye Allergies: It is a form of eye allergy. There are a few different types. If you haven't seen an allergist, then make an appointment. Ask them exactly what this means to you, and how it can be most effectively treated.

AKC? Treat ASAP!: Usually the term is atopic keratoconjunctivitis, or AKC. Think of this as eczema of the eye. Usually seen in older people, the cornea gets thickened slowly over time and is serious, worst case blindness. Often in association with eczema of eyelids, allergies. I've picked up a handful of cases. Needs ophthalmologist, even a corneal specialist if possible, ASAP! Dx early at your age, is treatable.
