Opticrom Allergy Eye Drops 5ml
Opticrom Hayfever 2% w/v Eye Drops (called Opticrom Hayfever in this
leaflet) contain a medicine called sodium cromoglicate. This belongs to a
group of medicines called anti-allergics.
It works by stopping the release of the natural substances in your eyes that
can lead to an allergic reaction. Signs of an allergic reaction include itchy,
watery, red or inflamed eyes and puffy eyelids.
These symptoms occur usually in the late spring or early summer when
pollen from grasses or trees comes into contact with the eyes of people
who are sensitive to them. This condition is sometimes called ‘hayfever
eyes’ or by its medical term: seasonal allergic conjunctivitis.
