What is the best way to reduce eye mucus due to allergies to clear vision?


I am currently on a medication study that does not allow me to take any additional allergy medication. I wear glasses and sometimes contacts and have always had a lot of eye mucus. My allergist has not been able to find a way to reduce it. My eyes are dry; but, I use rewetting drops quite often. Does anybody have any pointers for non-medical ways to improve this situation by reducing eye mucus levels?

Believe it of not the mucus is a good thing it traps the allergen and it reduces the irritation. Is your body's defense. I can understand that is annoying but, since your in that study your options are limited. Just keep your eyes clean and makes sure the tissue you use is clean every time. Good hand washing before and after will help reduce the amount of bacteria you introduce to your eyes every time you clean them.
Hope that helps
I use Visine for allergy eyes, can't you use regular Visine? the only other thing I can thing of is get a humidifier for your room the moist air might stop your eyes from producing so much mucus.
You can use eyelid scrubs to keep the area clean. I also noticed that i would get 'gooey' buildup in my eyes while i wore contacts. as soon as i stopped wearing them the problem cleared up for me.. perhaps the contacts are irritating your eyes and causing the mucous to be released as a defense mechanism?
