Conjunctivitis: more advice in case of pollen allergy

In case of pollen allergy, it is not advisable to use decongestant eye drops based on natural plant extracts, such as chamomile, mallow and cornflower. The risk, in fact, is that they aggravate the allergic reaction.

Chamomile and cornflower, in fact, belong to the Asteraceae family (also called Compositae) and if conjunctivitis is triggered by their own pollens, certainly these eye drops will not guarantee relief!
