| dc.description.abstract | Allergic disease is a complex disease caused by a combination of genetic and environmental
factors. Allergic diseases are on the rise, affecting about 30% to 40% of the world's population.
In addition to a decrease in quality of life, this disease can affect thesocial and economic. This
study aims to determine the concept of allergic conjunctivitis and its current management. Results:
Allergic conjunctivitis is an inflammatory response of the conjunctiva to allergens such as pollen,
environmental antigens (eg dust), and animal dander. Conclusion: Allergic diseases can be managed
strategically, both non-pharmacologically and pharmacologically. Pharmacological use is usually
preferred when non-pharmacological methods prove ineffective or insufficient in reducing allergy
symptoms. Topical therapy consists of combination drugs such as antihistamines and
vasoconstrictors, or antihistamines with mast cell stabilizing properties. The first are
vasoconstrictors that target eye redness and antihistamines that target allergy symptoms. | en_US |
