Why do My Eyes Burn When I Swim Under Water?

Q: Just the place I needed. I like swimming under water in my swimming pool. After the swim, my eyes are always irritated and red. Can you tell me why this happens? This is the whole scoop.

A:
Hi and welcome. The first element to look at is chlorine levels in the swimming pool water. High levels of chlorine can surely create eye irritation. Unbalance pH can be also the cause of eye redness or burning sensation. Human beings have a pH of 7.4 on the skin and eyes. That is why it is the ideal pH in swimming pool water for a proper balance. Try these tips and let me know.
Keep them coming.
Have a fantastic day.
