What causes itchy eye sockets

Itchy eye sockets may be caused by allergies, excessive eye use, and inflammation.

1. Allergy: When the skin of the eye socket comes into contact with allergens, an allergic reaction may occur, causing itching symptoms in the skin of the eye socket, and may also be accompanied by redness, swelling and pain. The symptoms can be relieved by washing with plenty of water and calamine lotion, or by using dexamethasone eye drops. For severe symptoms, oral antihistamines can also be used, such as cetirizine or budesonide.

2. Excessive use of eyes: staying up late or looking at electronic products for a long time will lead to eye fatigue, dry eyes and even itchy symptoms. You can use a steam eye mask for local hot compress massage to relieve the symptoms, or you can use eye drops to relieve eye fatigue, such as Beifushu eye drops. If the itching symptoms are severe, you need to use eye drops with anti-inflammatory and antipruritic effects, such as compound tobramycin eye drops.

3. Getting angry: Eating too much spicy or stimulating food or food that easily causes getting angry for a long time will cause internal fire to become strong and cause getting angry, resulting in dry and painful eyes, dizziness and other symptoms. It may also cause keratitis, leading to itching and pain in the eye sockets. You can drink some chrysanthemum tea, cassia seed tea or heat-clearing and eyesight-improving tea and other teas that have the effect of clearing heat and removing fire to improve the condition. If the symptoms are severe, drug treatment is required.
