AB  - Seasonal allergic conjunctivitis (SAC) is a frequent disease, which is often 
      associated with allergic rhinitis and subsequently manifested as allergic 
      rhinoconjunctivitis. In contrast to other types of chronic allergic 
      conjunctivitis, the course of SAC is not sight-threatening. Pathogenetically, the 
      underlying cause of SAC is an immunoglobulin E (IgE) mediated, Th2-driven type 1 
      hypersensitivity reaction. Clinically it presents with itching, light-red 
      conjunctival injection as well as chemosis that exceeds the extent of 
      conjunctival injection. The goals of treatment are relief of acute signs and 
      symptoms, control of the underlying inflammatory process and utilization of 
      preventive options. Dually effective local therapeutics combine the advantages of 
      rapid action with a relatively long-lasting effect by a two-fold active approach. 
      Specific immunotherapy is useful in selected patients.
