When to consult?
We consult the ophthalmologist after 2 days, if it is not better, because conjunctivitis can sometimes mask keratitis. This inflammation of the cornea, with or without ulcerations, can be caused by an infection (herpes virus, bacteria, fungus, etc.), trauma (exposure to strong radiation without sunglasses, arc welding, etc.), dry eye, ophthalmic shingles or allergic conditions. Untreated, it can cause serious and irreparable damage to the cornea.
“To treat allergic conjunctivitis, it is better to consult the homeopath who will prescribe a targeted treatment” insists Albert-Claude Quemoun, doctor of pharmacy. “In all cases Histaminum, but also the isotherapic of the allergen, that is to say the dilution of the substance which caused the allergic reaction.”
