FAQs
What are Opticrom eye drops used for?
Opticrom is a brand of allergy eye drops containing sodium cromoglicate, commonly used to help relieve allergy-related eye symptoms such as itching, redness and watering caused by airborne allergens. Always check the label and patient information leaflet for the specific product you’re buying.
What’s the difference between Opticrom 5ml and 10ml bottles?
The main difference is pack size. A 5ml bottle can suit occasional use or travel, while 10ml may suit regular use during hayfever season. Follow the directions in the patient information leaflet for your chosen product.
Are Opticrom single-dose vials better than a multi-dose bottle?
Single-dose units can be useful for portability and measured dosing, while multi-dose bottles may be more convenient for frequent use at home. Choose based on your routine and the product directions.
Can I use Opticrom if I wear contact lenses?
Some Opticrom products advise not to use them with contact lenses. Check the patient information leaflet for your specific Opticrom product and ask a pharmacist if you’re unsure.
How do I use Opticrom safely?
Use only as directed on the label and in the patient information leaflet, and do not exceed the stated dose. Avoid touching the bottle tip to your eye or any surface to reduce contamination risk, and seek advice if you’re uncertain about suitability or technique.
Can children use Opticrom allergy eye drops?
Suitability depends on the child’s age and the specific Opticrom product. Always check age guidance on the pack and leaflet. If you’re buying for a child or symptoms are persistent, ask a pharmacist for advice.
When should I speak to a pharmacist or GP about eye symptoms?
Seek advice if symptoms don’t improve, keep returning, or you’re unsure allergies are the cause. Get urgent medical help for eye pain, marked light sensitivity, sudden vision changes, injury, chemical exposure, or significant swelling.
Safety information: Opticrom products are medicines and may not be suitable for everyone. Always read the label and patient information leaflet before use and use only as directed. If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have an eye condition, wear contact lenses, take other medicines, or symptoms persist or worsen, speak to a pharmacist or your GP for personalised advice.
