This school year is coming to an end, and that means that all the fun summer activities are back! Some kids are jumping back into summer sports, and that means that parents and spectators are back in those folding chairs ready to take on the elements and cheer on their youngster! While these activities are fun, they also introduce seasonal eye health issues that can disrupt your enjoyment.

Allergies

Many people associate allergies with springtime, but they can last throughout the warmer months, too. In fact, because the “rainy season” is over and temperatures are on the rise, people are spending even more time outdoors, exposing themselves to all the allergens. These allergens, including pollen and animal dander, can lead to itchy, red, watery, and irritated eyes. Ultimately, this discomfort can make keeping your eyes on little #7 harder than it should be.

Occasional Dry Eye

Another common complaint during the hot, dry summer months is occasional dry eye. Because of the excessive heat and tendencies for drought, the air can be drier than normal. This dry air can cause your eyes to dry out faster and more often, and any kind of wind factor that pushes that hot, dry air around can exacerbate the problem.

Although it’s cooler than the outdoor air, air conditioning inside buildings can have a similar drying effect. When your eyes are dry, you can feel similar symptoms to allergies, like irritated, red, watery eyes. Occasional dry eye can also display as a burning sensation, grittiness, or a feeling of something in the eye.
