Is there such a thing as itchy eye virus?

Last week DD had itchy eyes, every day dirty streaks down her face where dirty fingers were rubbing the itch.
I put it down to hayfever, she was in the garden all the time, the sun and spring arrived last week!
Today I have got incessant itchy eye! Only one of them and so now I'm thinking it's some sort of (harmless) bug because I didn't have hayfever last week and I don't tend to get hayfever! It's itchy in the corner and all the way down the sinus to about halfway down my nose.

I'm not planning a gp trip or anything but intensely curious. Google has found nothing!

Has anyone else got these symptoms?

yep, me and DS!
i have always had hayfever, and last year it started earlier, think it has this year too
doc can give you some drops though, different to over the counter stuff

Conjunctivitus or blepharitis?
