Thoughts on eyeglasses and itching?

I have three patients who swear that their itching has stopped after changing their eyeglasses.
My friend, an MD, said that perhaps since the retina has histaminergic neurons, the people were not crazy.
Any thoughts on whether or not there might be a pathway triggered by retinal neuromodulation?

I have an allergy to nickel, so changing glasses or putting nail polish on the metal parts fixes the problem for me. However, my itching is focal- so it’s easy to identify
