eye irritation

Burning, watering vision

Eye irritation is discomfort in or around the eye—itching, burning, redness, or watering.

Common causes include allergens, dust, dry air, screen fatigue, or contact with irritants like smoke or chemicals.

The chlorine in the pool caused eye irritation.

Eye irritation is usually minor and temporary, though persistent cases may signal infection or other conditions requiring medical attention.
