Hello. What could be the causes for my 6 year old son to complain about itchy eyes? Has glasses for 3 months.?

Itchy eyes are a cardinal sign of allergies and probably aren't related to his glasses.  Make an appointment with your eye doctor who will be able to help you figure out the cause of your son's itching and an appropriate treatment.

do you happen to wear contacts, could be an allergy to the solution, could be just plain allergies.  Is there itching or discharge, discharge would point to some sort of infection.  If you do wear contacts, go see your eye Dr.  I had problems that started out with red eyes and it turned out my contacts  were causing ulcers on my eyes, you may need antibiotics and different contacts, I had to start wearing ones that allow more oxygen through cause the lack of o2 was causing my eyes to dry out and the contacts were rubbing ulcers.  I would definitely talk to your eye Dr.  you do not want to loose your vision.  Good Luck

There is no sure cause, though it probably has to do with allergies and a child's immature immune system. The best treatment is to reduce any irritants such as detergents, fabric softener, jewelry, etc. Also key is to keep skin moisturized.

SEE A PEDIATRICIAN! thast's first of all, also you may want to start keeping a journal of everything worn, eaten and done by him. Include what you washed the clothes in, how the food was prepared, where he goes, anything you can think of....Record also when he gets the hives, then show it to your pediatrician, and this will help them figure out what's wrong faster, b/c each time a reaction occurs it gets worse.

Okie... here's something that might help! U have unexplained headaches, you cant read those advert banners from far/ the blackboard in class from the last bench, your eyes get runny and itchy when youre trying to focus on a distant object, far away lights at night seem blurry and not pin points. If the answer to ANY of the above is YES.... its time to visit your friendly neighborhood Optometrist/ Ophthalmologist :) and btw... spectacles can make you look CUTE!

I live in Arizona, and never had real problems with my contacts till I moved here.  Now I can't wear contacts at all, they irritate my eyes.  I went to the optometrist and asked what the heck is wrong with me and they said it was low tear production.  Well, to make a long story short, I don't wear contacts anymore but still have dry eye problems, especially in the morning.  In my opinion, there seems to be no really good solution because I feel like I've tried everything (from supplements to visine) and nothing "cures" the problem.  Sorry to sound so bleak...  Hope you find a good answer

That happens to me all the time in the spring. It is probabley allergies, to flowers, trees and pollen. There isn't much you can do to stop the itching immidately. What ever you do, don't rub or scratch at your eyes. It makes it worse, and it makes you look really bad. Go to the doctor and have him check you out and if it is allergies, he will perscribe you some medicene, which will releive you long term. Hope this helps!

There isn't a solution for glasses and contacts besides surgery. \nGlasses were really annoying when I first got them 8 years ago, and they are still sometimes annoying..\nIn winters, the glasses get misty in winter when I go inside a building or when I try to drink tea/coffee (and when I am skiing..).\nOther than that, it's fine. I got used to it now, and it became part of me. In fact, it's more annoying to not be able to see anything than wearing glasses itself being annoying.\n\nDon't worry.. you will get used to it.

My 4 yr old daughter has a bit of a lazy eye, and surgery was an option for her, but we took her to an eye specialist and found out that glasses can also help correct it. I would contact an eye specialist, that deals with children that have lazy eyes, and or crossed eyes. Hope this has helped.

Significant dark circes under the eyes are often a sign that there is a physical cause. Allergy is the most common cause of this, but not the only one. If it is allergy, try any of the OTC medications available at the store to see if that helps. \n\nIf that doesn't help and he has chronic digestive complaints of any kind (stomach ache, gas, constipation or diarreah, etc) try an allegy identification diet to see if it is a food allergy. To do these, he will need to fast for 2 days then introduce one pure (one ingredient) food every few days. When symptoms return, looking at what food was newly introduced can often isolate a food trigger. There may be more than one, so keep going with the identification diet for a while. Rice is typically the first food to be reintroduced - no butter or seasonings other than plain salt. From there move to a vegetable, a fruit, a meat (watch for injected subtances and flavorings), a dairy, and a grain. Grains and dairy are very common allergens so be especially alert after one of these are introduced.\n\nOther than allergy, other causes are lack of sleep and drug use. Those should be pretty easy to eliminate though if they are not the cause.\n\nUntil a physical reason is turned up, dark circles can be concealed with concealer make up. Since he is a guy though, he will probably feel the dark circles are better than that.

First of all, I experienced this problem recently with my child.  It is very painful!  The treatment we gave her is basically the same as it would be for anyone.\n\nWhen you scratch the cornea it makes your eye very sensitive to light, there is pain varying in the degree of the scratched area, and a lot of uncontrollable tears.\n\nWe had no idea what was wrong with her so we took her to the emergency room.  They evalutated her and found it to be an issue with her eye.\n\nTo confirm the problem a special dye was put in and the room lights were turned out while a black light was hovered over the eye.  It clearly shows the depth of the cut.  Everything shows up a fluorescent green color.  We could see how badly her eye was cut.\n\nHer treatment included: an antibiotic to apply to the eye, an eye patch to protect the eye, however, in our case our child was too small to tolerate the eye patch so we kept her in a darkened room for about 24 hours and she was able to tolerate light once again. She was also given medication to help relieve the pain.\n\nWe were told she shouldn't rub the eye as this would only aggravate the pain and healing process.  The doctor said the cornea is the fastest healing area of the body and only takes a day or two to heal.  That is the good news!\n\nThis was my personal experience and the treatment is the general treatment for anyone with a cornea scratch.

There is something called Tuja or Thuja.  Maybe homeopath medicine.  Consult a doctor since the child is quite small and the area is near the eye.

Have you asked your eye doctor?  Mine prescribed me Lotemax, which is a steroid eye drop.  It seems to help on my really bad, itchy days.
