Allergic Rhinitis vs. Atopic Conjunctivitis: What’s the Difference
Allergic rhinitis and atopic conjunctivitis are common springtime ailments. Allergic rhinitis affects the nose, causing sneezing and congestion, while atopic conjunctivitis affects the eyes, leading to redness and itching. Both conditions can be triggered by pollen and dust. Treatment options include antihistamines and avoiding known allergens. Prevent flare-ups by wearing sunglasses outdoors and showering after being outside.
