Year round allergies and contacts?

I wear glasses, and I would really like to switch to contact lenses. The only problem is that I have year round allergies and I don't know how it will affect my eyes. I mentioned it to my doctor, and he sort of brushed it off and said that it would just irritate my eyes if I had contacts. I was wondering if it is possible for me to get contacts, or if my doctor brushed off my question because people with year round allergies can't wear contacts...

    Allergies can definitely make it more of a challenge to wear contact lenses. However, an optician with experience can help you explore your options. You may need to try a few things before you find what works best for you but many people with allergies do find a way to wear contacts successfully and comfortably.

    If you got the brush off, get a second opinion.

    I have allergies and I wear contacts. I don't think you will have much of a problem with it. I would definatly go for it. People with allergies can wear contacts, your doctor shouldn't have brushed you off.
