We donโt get a lot of rain in Californiaโฆ until this year when thereโs rain every week and sudden downpours every now and then. Not sure if the rainy days are trying to make up for the drought or trying to teach the spoiled Californians a lesson, but the increased amount of allergens in the air is definitely triggering some allergic reactions to my eyes, nose, and skin. Iโve been rubbing my eyes like thereโs no tomorrow, and that had made my eyes swollen and created many wrinkles and loose skin around my eyesโฆ
I went to the doctor to get some stronger antihistamine eye drops, but I could only use them twice a day. Thatโs not enough to soothe my itchy eyes. so I am resorting to generic eye drops.

It works but I could only use it a limited amount of times
Dosage: 1 or 2 drops up to 4 times a day
Ease of Use: The eye drop comes right out of the bottom so I have to act quick to make sure it gets in.
Effectiveness: I can open my eyes right away (yes, I was squinting when I was using the antihistamine because it was a little drying) and itโs not irritating! It lasts a few hours before I feel dryness so thatโs not too bad.

It works but eyes are dry after 30 minutesโฆ..
Dosage: 1 or 2 drops as needed
Ease of Use: It took some squeezing to the get the drops out, but it flows after when it comes. Itโs a little hard to controlโฆ
Effectiveness: Itโs soothing right away, but it feels like my eyes are dry again after typing this postโฆ!? I guess I can use it as many times as I need thoughโฆ
I will probably try some more after I use these upโฆ
