Your symptoms of itching, redness, and a gritty sand-like feeling are typical of Allergic Conjunctivitis, which often worsens in summer due to dust, pollen, and heat; using steroid drops like Deco Eye Drops without supervision is not advisable as they can cause side effects, so it?s better to switch to anti-allergic eye drops, use cold compresses, avoid rubbing your eyes, wear sunglasses outdoors, and consult an eye specialist for proper long-term treatment.

  1. Medical Assessment

    • Symptoms suggest possible allergic conjunctivitis or blepharitis, particularly since symptoms worsen during summer.
    • Dexcin (containing Dexamethasone and Neomycin) helps reduce inflammation and bacterial infection but long-term use should be monitored.

  2. Immediate Recommendations

    • Consult an ophthalmologist to evaluate the need for continued use of Dexcin.
    • Consider allergy testing or discuss alternative treatments if allergy is suspected.

  3. Precautions

    • Avoid touching the dropper tip to prevent contamination.
    • Monitor for persistent symptoms and consult a healthcare provider if symptoms do not improve.

  4. Follow-Up

    • Schedule a follow-up appointment if there is no improvement, or if you experience worsening symptoms.
