I accidentally put systane eye drops n my nose thinking it was my saline, is this dangerous? Should I go to doctor? ## Hello, Cindy! How are you? It would actually be more risky the other way around, since nasal drops are not sterile like eye drops. Since these are just lubricating drops, there's likely nothing to worry about, but you may experience runny nose and some nasal irritation, as reported by the FDA. Did you experience any adverse effects? When in doubt, it's always best to check with your doctor, your nearest urgent care or call poison control.

Several years ago a doctor recommended over the counter "briny" eyedrops which I found to be helpful in managing "sandpapery" feeling eyes. Now I would like to use these eyedrops again but I cannot remember the name. I seem to recall they started with UR (not sure). Any ideas? ## No eye drops I found started with "UR", but the following are names of eye drops that I felt most closely matched your description: Murine eye drops (these are made from urine) Brolene eye drops Brimo eye drops Could it have been some sort of foreign brand?

Is there an over the counter eye drop that starts with T? ## Based on my research, I only came across two brands that started with a T. I can't say however, if these are the only one's on the market that begin with this letter: -"Tears" Naturale Free Lubricant Eye Drops, 60 Single-Use Vials -"TheraTears" Lubricant Eye Drops, Single-Use Containers TheraTears appears to be a common brand here in the U.S.; so I think it's a good match. Was there anything in particular that was special about this brand of eye drops you're looking for? ## I feels pain in eyeballs with tears. Eyes got reddish and iching. I spend lot of time in computer work. ## Anyone ever heard of eye drops with these names - Luzazone or Visiusmidriatic? I can't get the names right, but I ...

eye drops ## would like to know side effects,and iif taken longer then prescribed would it be harmful ## The correct drug name is Vigamox, these drops contain Moxifloxacin, an antibiotic agent. Some of the most common side effects include: nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and abdominal pain. If they are misused, antibiotic resistance can develop, so you should only use them for the length of time your doctor instructed.

need some OTC drops for conjunctivitis please advise what is available for over the counter ## conjunctivitis is usually caused by a virus or bacteria. you will most likely need eyedrops with an antibiotic in them, not available over the counter. You should try warm, moist compresses, however, going to the doctor for the correct drops is best. ## Yes, please see your doctor. this site does not have any medical professionals on this site, this is an information only website.

I've been on Durezol for 1-1/2 years for Iritis. I've had 6 eye surgeries in 2 years-2 macular holes, 2 cataracts, 2 eye shunts because of high IOP. I've gained 17 lbs. When you drop Durezol then pinch your eyes, you still get Durezol running into your tear ducts which then goes right into your system. Can't be helped. But also because Durezol makes your vision blurry and your eyes light sensitive, I've not been as physically active as I was prior to my eye surgeries and I went into a little depression. I think that is reason for my weight gain and maybe others.

its side effects, I am 27yrs 9 months old, doctor has prescribed this eye drops, advised to use this 8 times daily, each times 2 drops, gradually decrease the amount, total course is 15days. along with this he has advised to use pentol eye drops 3times daily for 15 days. can you please tell me what are the side effects it has. ## The active ingredient in Predmet eye drops is Prednisolone, it is a corticosteroid. Since they are drops, little is usually actually absorbed in the body, so side effects are minimal, but may include: eye irritation, blurry vision, nausea and fluid retention. Pentol contains the active ingredient Cyclopentolate and, to be honest, I am not sure why the doctor has you using them regularly, because they are normally used to stop the eye from focusing to enable t...

I have been trying to find Prefrin as well. I used to use it in the 80's & early 90' then it just went away from the stores. I do know that it was made in South Ft. Worth by Alcon Labs. It is still available ???? It was the BEST eye redness relief product on the market... Thanks ## From what I've been seeing on the web, I don't think it's still being manufactured anymore. However you may want to look into what's called a "compounding pharmacy". I don't know all of what goes into it, but apparently these types of places can formulate something for you, provided that you have a valid prescription for it. The list of ingredients contained in Prefrin Eye Drops are: Phenylephrine hydrochloride (1,2 mg/mL) + Liquifilm [polyvinyl alcohol] (14 mg/mL) + Be...

eye drops ## Is it possible for rastasis eye drops to cause the blood to thin so that clotting is difficult. My husband has been using these drops for about a week and a cut on his hand was still bleeding profusely the next morning. This is very uncommon for him and rastasis is the only new medication he is using. ## Restasis is listed as containing Cyclosporine, it is used in drop form to treat chronic dry eye. The FDA lists its typical side effects as possibly including irritation, redness, burning, and eye irritation, and yes, it has also been reported to cause bleeding and clotting disorders in some patients. How is he doing, now? Has there been any change?

I put Murine ear drops into my eye mistaking it for Murine eye drops. I had hard contacts in my eyes. Searing pain! Had a hard time removing the hard lens. It stuck to my eye. Once out, I flushed my eye with eye flush for 15 minutes. 24 hours later my eye is still very sore. I saw a specialist. He said my eye will recover but will be sore for a few days. He gave me a steroid eye drop. Checked out the health of my eyes at the same time. All is now on the mend but still stinging. During the first night a cold pack on my eye was very helpful. Note to self "read labels carefully." ## Hello, Effie! Wow! I am very sorry about what happened. How are you feeling? Eye drops in the ear are okay, but not ear drops in the eye, because they aren't sterile. Just an FYI for anyone else tha...

How close together can theses drops be used the day before catarac surgery ## Because every surgeon has their own unique set of rules to follow before and after the operation it would be best to schedule an appointment with the surgeon to ask him directly. When you schedule a consultation prior to the surgery, remind them to discuss medications that you may or may not take, any prescriptions and how to use them, and how to prepare for the day of your surgery. Additionally, the surgeon usually gives the patient a list of pre and post operative care instructions to follow before going in. These instructions include what you should and should not be taking prior to and after the surgery. If you did not receive this I would ask them well before going in. I hope this helps!

I think they are selling Visine LR on the internet, but it is very expensive. It is the only gtts that work for me. Have been searching for it for two months. Some of the blogs here have helped with suggestions. ## Hi Neil, Thanks for the heads up. I've also heard about some remaining stocks of Visine LR being available online, but are being sold for much more than most individuals are willing to pay.

I was using Bausch + Lomb eye drops for years with good results. Then insurance companies made me switch to generic Azelastine HCI by Apotex Corp and in the past 3-years I'm sure there were other manufactures because the bottle has not always looked the same. I've discussed the terrible side effects with Generic brand. I'm told it's the same as B&L but it's not. This Apotex Corp burned or stung so bad that I jumped in the shower with my clothes on. I've always put a drop on my inside wrist and wait a day before ever putting liquid in my eye and though this is not a full proof way of knowing if the drops will burn it certainly makes me feel a little more at ease before using. I never had a broblem until generic and now I'm using/trying many over the counte...
