Summary

This trial will compare the effectiveness of two eye drop medications in treating seasonal allergies in children.

This trial is for children aged 6-18 with a history of seasonal allergic conjunctivitis, evidenced by itching and redness in both eyes, and a positive skin reaction to local grass pollen. It excludes those with other eye disorders, sensitivity to study meds, recent use of certain drugs that affect results, or poor vision not correctable to specific standards.
What is being tested?
The study compares Hylo-Dual (Hyaluronic acid & Ectoine) against Olopatadine in treating seasonal allergic conjunctivitis over two months. Participants are randomly assigned to either the Hylo-Dual group or the Olopatadine group.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include temporary eye irritation or discomfort, dry eyes, blurred vision after application, and possible hypersensitivity reactions if there's an allergy to any components.
