Introduction:
Ocular allergy is a common condition affecting approximately 17 to 20% of the population, and its incidence is increasing.(1,2,3) The conjunctiva is exposed to many environmental allergens and is often the location of first contact with an allergen. For this reason, the management of ocular allergies is a very important aspect of many vision care practices.
