Optrex Double Action Preservative Free Eye Drops for Itchy and Watery Eyes

You can find relief from uncomfortable itchy and watery eyes with these dual-action eye drops. The formulation works to address both symptoms simultaneously, providing comfort when your eyes feel irritated or inflamed. Each 10ml bottle contains a sterile solution designed for sensitive eyes.

These drops are suitable for daily use and can help manage symptoms associated with various eye irritations. The gentle formulation makes them appropriate for regular application when you experience discomfort from environmental factors or seasonal changes.

How These Eye Drops Work

The drops work by lubricating your eye surface and helping to flush away irritants that may be causing discomfort. The solution helps restore moisture to dry eyes whilst addressing the underlying irritation that leads to itching and excessive tearing.

When you apply the drops, they form a protective layer over your eye surface. This helps maintain natural moisture levels and provides a barrier against environmental irritants that might worsen your symptoms.

Who Can Use These Drops

These eye drops are suitable for adults and children over 6 years old who experience itchy and watery eyes. They work well for people who have sensitive eyes or those who wear contact lenses, though you should remove lenses before application.

The drops are particularly helpful if you experience:

Seasonal eye irritation and discomfort
Environmental sensitivity causing watery eyes
General eye itching and irritation
Dry eye symptoms alongside irritation

You can browse our complete range of eye care products to find additional solutions for various eye conditions and symptoms.

Benefits of Preservative-Free Formulation

The preservative free eye drops formulation reduces the risk of additional irritation that preservatives can sometimes cause. This makes them particularly suitable if you have sensitive eyes or need to use eye drops frequently throughout the day.

Preservatives in eye drops can sometimes cause stinging, burning, or increased irritation, especially with regular use. By choosing a preservative-free option, you minimise these potential side effects whilst still receiving effective symptom relief.

Storage and Shelf Life Considerations

You should store these drops at room temperature and use them within 28 days of first opening the bottle. The preservative-free formulation means the solution has a shorter shelf life once opened compared to preserved alternatives, but this ensures maximum gentleness for your eyes.

Keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use and avoid touching the dropper tip to any surface, including your eye, to maintain sterility. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

This product is a medicine. Speak to your doctor or pharmacist before using if you have an underlying medical condition or are taking other medicines.

How to Apply Your Eye Drops

You should wash your hands thoroughly before using the eye drops. Tilt your head back slightly and gently pull down your lower eyelid to create a small pocket. Hold the bottle above your eye and squeeze gently to release one or two drops into the pocket you have created.

After applying the drops, close your eye gently and avoid blinking rapidly. You can apply light pressure to the inner corner of your eye for about one minute to prevent the drops from draining away too quickly. This helps ensure the medication stays in contact with your eye surface.

Frequency and Timing of Use

You can use these drops as needed throughout the day when you experience symptoms. If you wear contact lenses, you must remove them before applying the drops and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them. This prevents any interaction between the drops and your lens material.

You should not use the drops more frequently than recommended on the packaging. If your symptoms persist or worsen after several days of use, you should consult your pharmacist or doctor for further advice about your eye condition.

Possible Side Effects and Precautions

Like all medicines, Optrex Double Action Preservative Free Eye Drops can have side effects, although not everyone will experience them. If you have ongoing eye problems or symptoms that affect your vision, you should explore our allergy and hay fever treatments for comprehensive symptom management.

Most people tolerate these eye drops well, but some may experience temporary stinging or burning immediately after application. These effects typically subside within a few minutes as your eyes adjust to the solution.

You should stop using the drops and seek medical advice if you experience any of these side effects:

Severe or persistent eye pain
Worsening redness or irritation
Changes in your vision
Increased sensitivity to light
Discharge from your eyes
Swelling of your eyelids
Persistent stinging or burning
Allergic reactions such as rash or itching around the eyes
Headaches associated with eye use
Blurred vision that does not clear

If you experience these or any other side effects, speak to your doctor or pharmacist right away. For more information about reporting side effects please see the MHRA Yellow Card Scheme.
