Abstract
Background
Allergic conjunctivitis (AC) is usually associated to allergic rhinitis (AR), but the severity and control of ocular symptoms should be assessed independently to improve diagnosis and treatment. The criteria from the Spanish consensus document on allergic conjunctivitis (DECA) aimed to be used as a patient-reported instrument for AC management. Here we validate these criteria for classifying AC severity and defining its control following COSMIN guidelines recommendations.
