Advantages: Very effective

Disadvantages: Not cheap

I know that the hay fever peak season seems a long way off at the moment with the current temperatures low enough to freeze my windscreen every morning but Opticrom is an excellent product for treating other eye inflammations as well although like most people I tend to use it most of the time to treat hay fever.

Opicrom contains Sodium Cromoglicate and is an excellent eye drop for providing relief for itchy eyes caused by allergic reactions to pollen or dust. It comes in either a small 5ml or 10ml size bottles which are clear plastic and a screw top lid. Inside there is an eye drop aperture for allowing the drops to fall from and this is very effective as only a small amount f liquid comes out at any one time.

I tend to find that I need a couple of drops in each eye in the morning when I know that the pollen will be bad and combined with other treatment that I use it is very effective and preventing any itching. You have to blink rapidly to get the solution spread around the eye and it just feels like water drops and is dourless.

On the box it recommends repeatiung it four times a day however I find that it is effective with only one treatment for me unless I do any gardening or cleaning in a dusty room then I might need a top up.


This is a really effective product that is available over the counter, it should not be used in conjunction with soft contact lenses.

Summary: Excellent product
