Optilast Allergy Eye Drops

The Optilast eye drops solution offers quick relief for allergic conjunctivitis. This is a condition that affects the eyes and causes symptoms such as itching, swelling, and puffiness. Itchy, watery and puffy eyes are some of the symptoms. The active ingredient of this antihistamine is azelastine hydrochloride, which is also an antihistamine.

Mast cells are a group of cells found in the eye. The eye's immune system is controlled by mast cells. Histamines are substances released by mast cells in response to allergens, which causes the eyes to become watery and inflamed. Pollen, animal fur and dust mites are the most common allergens. Azelastine hydrochloride stops these cells from releasing histamine, which decreases inflammation.

Optilast Eye Drops 0.05 can be used to prevent your eyes from becoming itchy or sore, but it is better to combine it with the following home remedies:

Wearing sunglasses can help to reduce the amount of pollen in your eyes;
After spending time outside, wash your hair and change your clothes; and
When pollen levels are high, dry washed clothes indoors.

Before you use, wash your hands well. One drop per eye, two times daily. You can increase the frequency up to four times a day if this dose proves ineffective. Do not touch the tip of your eyedropper to any surface or eye. You can rest your hand on your side and place the drop on your eye if you have trouble with this.

Optilast should be stopped being used for longer than six weeks. To ensure that the drops are sterile, you should replace your Optilast bottle after four weeks.

Optilast should not be used by children under 12 years of age.
