Why do my eyes itch when I'm washing dishes?

Every time I wash up (kitchen too small for a dishwasher Sad) my eyes get insanely itchy, usually in the inner corners and so intensely that I have to stop and dry my hands so I can rub them. It's a tickly kind of itch, like a stray hair is poking me right in the corner of my eye but I know it's not that as my hair is too short. So what's causing it? Am I allergic to Fairy liquid fumes? On one hand I kind of hope so, would be a good excuse for DH to have to take over the washing up but a bit inconvenient when he's working away and I'm on my own with DC, we don't have enough crockery to save it all for when he gets back! Does anyone else get this?

I’m guessing an allergy or intolerance of some kind. Have you tried using other products and seeing if that helps?

Presumably.
Try an anti histamine before hand and change your liquid
