| Summary: |
Basing on our Outpatients Clinic material we aimed to
summarise our experience with children suffering from ocular allergy and verify the
symptoms and seasonal incidence of their disease. We analysed their medical records paying
attention to medical history, physical examination and season of the year connected with
their symptoms. Of all patients attending our Outpatients Clinic 4,6% suffered from ocular
allergy. The medium age of ocular allergy occurrence was 6,6 years. In majority of cases
spring was the season when this disease appeared. Symptoms had mainly seasonal character.
Itching and lacrimation were the main complaints. On physical examination the most
frequent signs of allergy were alterations within the conjunctiva. Visual acuity was not
deteriorated by ocular allergy. |
