  It is quite possible. We all know that allergies might cause conjunctivitis, which gives you swelling eyelids, sensitivity to light, pain in eyes and blurred vision. It is kind of emergency, so I suggest you to visit a doctor at once. Conjunctivitis refers the inflammation of conjunctiva which is the transparent protective covering on eyeball. Allergic conjunctivitis is very common and very possible. If the allergy is severe, it might cause breathing problem for swelling respiratory tract. It could be very dangerous. If treated properly, the symptoms can go away soon. Good luck to you.

Food allergies can cause fatigue, lethargy, drowsiness, apathy, hyperactivity, watery and itchy eyes, hearing loss and ear infections, blurred vision and so on. Tell the doctor about your condition, and have a blood test to find out what you are allergic to.
