Itchy eyes

Itchy eyes is often a symptom of allergies or exposure to dust and pollen. This condition leads to an irresistible urge to rub the eyes, which can exacerbate irritation and even lead to more serious eye issues if not managed properly. Keeping your environment clean and avoiding known allergens are helpful preventive measures.
