Why is it that, of all people, those who suffer from allergies in the summer are at an increased risk of becoming infected with the coronavirus? This is due to the fact that the mucous membranes in the upper respiratory system of allergy sufferers swell when they become irritated by allergens. This makes them more permeable to viruses, including the coronavirus. Anyone who has come to the conclusion that it is best to avoid irritation caused by allergens is correct – and should take a closer look at our AirgoClean 10 E Air purifier with HEPA filter and our B and B-E series humidifiers.
Your eye itches and burns mainly in the office and is reddened? Instead of simply getting eye drops from the pharmacy over and over again, it is better to visit an eye doctor. Because irritated eyes have their reasons. Often they are relatively simple: When working in front of the monitor, we blink less, which reduces the supply of moisture to the eyes.

Often contact lens wearers in particular have to struggle with irritated eyes in the office. Because if the contact lens does not float on the tear film as it normally does, but lies directly on the cornea, the eye quickly becomes irritated. The reason for this is relatively simple: We blink less during screen work, which inhibits the supply of moisture, and then the dry air in the office tears open the tear film. There are two solutions for this: One is to consciously blink. And one using professional humidifiers from Trotec.
Those who work in an office usually know about the problem of constantly irritated eyes. This has led to a type of inflationary use of eye drops. However, not all eye drops are suitable for symptom relief. If they contain preservatives, for example, the problem can become even worse. And in the case of eye drops for reddened eyes, the active ingredient is broken down after a short time, the blood circulation in the eye increases again and it continues to dry out. Why don’t we just get to the root of the problem? With often excessively dry office air?
Office folk are often all too familiar with the problem of endlessly irritated eyes. When your eyes have too little tear fluid, they become excessively dry, they itch, they burn and they become red. We’re well aware of the reasons for this: on the one hand, long periods of working at a computer screen suppress the closing of the eyelids, akin to a reflex, thus inhibiting the supply of moisture. Conscious blinking, on the one hand, does help. On the other hand, office air that is often excessively dry causes the tear film to evaporate more quickly. A professional humidifier – from Trotec – helps to combat this!
