Allergy inhibition

Abstract

Allergen contact with a person's allergen-responsive tissues is reduced by removing airborne allergens from body surfaces adjacent the person's eyes. Airborne allergens may be removed from body surfaces adjacent the person's eyes by irrigating such areas with an irrigating fluid or by wiping such areas with a pad. Preferably the irrigating fluid or the pad is treated to augment its effectiveness in removing airborne allergens or otherwise preventing them from entering the eye, and/or to reduce allergy symptoms in the eye area caused by airborne allergens that enter the eye.
