Questions for your doctor

Preparing questions in advance can help patients to have more meaningful discussions with their physicians regarding their conditions. Patients may wish to ask their doctor the following questions about eye-related symptoms:

  1. What eye-related symptoms may I experience as the result of my allergies?

  2. What tests will you use to determine the cause of my eye-related symptoms?

  3. Which types of eye–related symptoms can I treat at home, and which symptoms need to be treated by a doctor?

  4. What are my treatment options?

  5. Is there an underlying condition causing my eye–related symptoms?

  6. How can I prevent eye-related symptoms?

  7. How long will my symptoms last?

  8. What should I do if my symptoms get worse?

  9. Should I expect my symptoms to return in the future?

  10. Will my eye-related symptoms have a permanent effect on my vision?
