My left eye itches... Does it indicate that I have an eye disease? Should I go see a doctor?

you will be more comfortable if you go to the doctor , and also more oriented about the case in the future

scratch it !!!

No, it could be just allergies. But if it's only in one eye, it could definitely be something like pink eye or some other infection. If it continues for more than one or two days, you should see an eye doctor.

just have a general check up its always better.nothing to bother

Itching is often allergic, but it can also indicate a infection. Try rinsing the eye well with Visine Tears (non-preserved artificial tears), NOT regular Visine or Visine for allergies. This will rinse away any allergens that may be irritating your eye.

If the itching persists, go see an optometrist.
