March in Lagos brings the first rains and a surge in eye allergy cases at Megavision Eye Clinic. The transition from dry Harmattan to early rains releases pollen, mold spores, and dust into the air, triggering allergic responses in sensitive individuals. Our specialist team provides targeted relief across our three convenient Lagos locations in Ikeja, Yaba, and Akowonjo.
