Furthermore, in the past 2 days she has complained of itchy eyes, and there are reciprocal erythematous changes on her eyelids. 18 days prior she had begun a new job at a beauty salon. Upon further questioning, she says her job involves setting up sunbeds and preparing various hair treatments including dying hair; but she usually wears latex gloves for this.
