Allergic conjunctivitis
How long does allergic conjunctivitis last? I am having this disease since my childhood. It's been 20-25 years! Tried many doctors but no permanent cure. My eye's redness and itching happens in 5-6 months intervals throughout the year and stays for 2-3 months. I am so sick of this! Is there any cure?
