Antihistamines and mast cell stabilizers are integral to the management of allergic conjunctivitis (Bielory et al., 2012). These agents are included in therapeutic guides for seasonal allergic conjunctivitis (Bielory et al., 2012). Furthermore, their role is incorporated into algorithms developed for the broader management of allergic conjunctivitis (Bielory et al., 2013).
