I don't even care why so much as advice on what will help.

I lived in No. VA most of my life and now I'm right next to D.C. in MD. You are probably allergic to oak pollen--it's all over the place in May. I'd suggest seeing a doctor and asking what they suggest. I have barely had any allergy problems this year. I take Zyrtec daily for the allergies, and Singulair to help prevent asthma caused by allergies.
Good luck and welcome to the area!

Yes, definitely take some type of allergy medicine (even the generic over the counter stuff works okay). And try not to rub your eyes, get a warm damp washcloth and use that to either lay on your eyes or to wash them out. Hope this helps!

I just took my son to the doctor last week about his eyes. They told me he had allergies. The doctor gave me eye drops for his eyes. It seems to be helping. We also live in northern va(Winchester).
