Hello doctor,

I have some problems with my eye and need some assistance. I have red eyes from a few months now and have tried some drops and it has reduced. But still, I have some redness in the eye. Adding to it, I have some headaches and can see a lot of eye floaters from a week now. Please help.

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Here your symptoms look more in favor of allergic conjunctivitis. This may occur due to allergy to dust, grass, pollen, cosmetics, soap, etc. Allergic conjunctivitis may be seasonal type. Try to avoid the above allergens to get rid away from allergy. You may have frequent itching in your eyes. Please keep in mind not to rub your eyes by any means. Rubbing eye frequently may provoke developing allergic conjunctivitis which was once healed up.

I think in UK Patanol eye drops comes with 0.1% strength. If you get 0.2% eye drops then use drops once daily or if it is 0.1% then use two times per day. Patanol 0.1% eye drops two times per day. Use Lotemax 0.5% eye drops for three times/ day. (Instruction: put only one drop at a time).

Headache and floaters mostly occur due to uncorrected numbers you are using or not wearing spectacles at all. Do use spectacles on a daily basis. Opticrom (Sodium Cromoglicate) may cause a mild burning or stinging sensation. Do not worry.
