Why do my eyes burn? Why does my skin itch when I get out of the pool?

-A misconception is that these types of irritation are caused by chlorine. Most commonly eye or skin irritation is caused by inaccurate pH levels. Too high or too low of a pH level will cause red or burning eyes and can also cause a skin rash. The pH level of your pool should be the same pH level as your body, which is between 7.2 and 7.8. This creates a comfortable swimming environment.
