Abstract Objective To provide a new method for the diagnosis of allergic conjunctivitis by detecting the total IgE level of tears in children. Methods 40 patients in our hospital were studied. By measuring and comparing the total IgE level of tears in the experimental group and the control group, the difference between the two groups was compared by statistical methods. Results A total of 40 cases were collected, including 26 cases in the AC exper- imental group and 14 cases in the control group. The total IgE concentration in tears of allergic conjunctivitis patients in the experimental group was mostly lower. There was no significant difference in total IgE level between the control group and the experimental group. Conclusion Tear detection has guiding significance for the diagnosis of AC, but it is difficult to reflect in children. Further studies should be conducted on the basis of this study to make tear detection more accurate and effective for the diagnosis and treatment of allergic conjunctivitis in children.
