What is Opticrom

Opticrom is used to help prevent and relieve eye allergies such as hayfever and conjunctivitis. 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.

Allergies can happen at any time of the year due to different pollens dependent upon the season. 

How to use Opticrom Eye Drops

One or two drops in each eye four times a day (or as directed by your doctor)

If your symptoms worsen or do not improve talk to a doctor or pharmacist 

  1. Wash your hands 
  2. Before using this medication for the first time, be sure that the tamper-proof seal on the bottle is unbroken. A gap between the bottle and the cap is normal for an unopened bottle 
  3. Remove the cap of the bottle
  4. Tilt your head back 
  5. Squeeze one or two drops inside the lower lid without touching your eye
