Opticrom Eye Drops

Opticrom contains 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. Opticrom is used for the relief and treatment of eye allergies. These include: • Short and long term allergic conjunctivitis (inflammation of parts of the eye) • More severe cases of conjunctivitis (‘vernal kerato conjunctivitis’). Signs include bumps inside the upper eyelid, sensitivity to light and severe itching.
