For a little over a week now, I've been waking up every morning with red, irritated eyes that have clear, watery drainage. My mom thought I had pink eye, so I stayed out of school Monday and yesterday. I was finally able to get an appointment yesterday, and my doctor said I didn't have pink eye, but my allergy medicine was starting to not work as well, so she prescribed me 60 mg Allegra (Fexofenadine Hydrochloride tablets) and Pataday eyedrops (olopatadine hydrochloride ophthalmic solution, 0.

My son's right eye has been hurting him for about 3 months now. The pediatrician referred us to a pediatric eye doc. My son is very light sensitive, so this appointment was difficult since he was complaining but the doc found nothing wrong with his eye. He gave us Pataday for eye allergy and it has not helped. However when he dilated his eye he had no pain. His eye is not red and not watery. I do not know if he has any other allergies besides seasonal allergies. He holds his right eye all the

I have severe allergies and my eyes and burning like crazy! I've tried Pataday and Pred Forte, but neither of these medicines seem to be working! The Pred Forte worked for a short while, however, now it isn't helping at all! I'll try to get in contact with my eye specialist. In the meantime, what are some medications we should discuss? Is there any other reason why my eyes are frying? (No symptoms of pink eye.)

It works wonders but does not last anywhere all day for me. Is there a stronger dosage I can get of pataday or a similar drop that is stronger? I have allergy eyes. Constantly red. If I take it in the morning it will help drastically until noon then they start getting red again.

So it all started almost in the end of june my eyes started to become pink and suddenly red with white bump forming, they irritating and itching, also woke up in the morning with yellow thick discharge or crust. My mom took me to an eye doctor to check it. He said it was an allergic eye infection something like that. So he gave me 3 drops. First was a prescription: Bausch and Lombs Alrex Eye drops( drops are milky white color, Instilled one drop 4 times a day, 5 to 7 days.) Second Blink Eye

Around the allergy season (like now) my eyes get really itchy. It's specifically my eyelash line towards the inner part of my eye (like that area that's close to the nose bridge) that gets really itchy. I even went to an opthamalogist but they just prescribed me pataday and said it'd go away if I used that. It did go away but once I ran out the itchiness came back...should I just take claratin or some allergy medicine? Please help it's really uncomfortable

I was just prescribed pataday eye drops to take over the summer due to allergies and wearing contacts but it is very expensive even through my insurance is there any over the counter drops that are similar that I could take???

Is there a cream for the redness?

He has been using Pataday(once a day). But now the doc asked me to use Bepreve which is twice a day. I don't want to use multiple drops and mess it up any furthur. Please advice Thanks

I have treated my daughter (4) with Pataday thinking it was allergy related b/c she didn't have any puss or sticky eyes usually associated w/ "pink eye". Her eye was just mildly- very mildly crusty. I too suffer from allergies in one eye more than the other w/ a little crust when pink. Pataday works immediately for me and in minutes my eye returns back to normal. Her eye remained pink throughout the day and night. It is safe to mention she wasn't exactly the best patient- not "really" allowin

I have to take Pataday allergy eye drops, Zyrtec, Nasonex allergy nose spray, Pro Air HFA asthma inhaler for allergic asthma, and allergy shots (I'm up to one in each arm every 3 weeks). Do I really have to take all these medications? I thought maybe the Zyrtec and the allergy shots would cover my allergies, but they don't. I have severe enough allergies that if I go outside for like 2 minutes, I'm sneezing, hacking, coughing, and itching my eyes. But I really don't want to take a lot of med

My cat has an eye infection in his left eye, his eye has been forming a gunky yellowish mucus and its membrane is slightly swollen and red, I've read into and it sounds most likey like pink eye. I've been wiping away the gunk I can get to with a warm wet washcloth, but it cmes back soon enough. I have two different eyedrops I was prescribed for pinkeye, one being Pataday and another. Would pataday be safe to use in his eye temorarilly? I also read that a warm chamomile or rnglish breakfast tea

I have Blepharitis and dryeye and if I can discontinue some of these I would love to but wondered which one could have excessive tearing as a side effect. It seems to be primarily affecting my right eye. It is always the most irritated one if they are irritated, more so than the left one. I can look at websites on my own. Please answer if you have medical experience or knowledge or pharmaceutical expertise.

As the question asks, can it? I received these eye drops about 5 days ago from my eye doctor, and was directed to use them twice a day for the first 3 days, and then once a day after. So..I started once a day yesterday, and once today. However, from about the 2nd day on, i've been having serious trouble sleeping. I'll go to bed, and literally be trying to sleep until 6am. I fell asleep this morning at 6am, and got up around 11:30am. I'm exhausted at the moment. So yeah..has anyone heard of t

I've been struggling with very itchy eyes since April. I've seen an allergy doctor. I've been to an eye doctor at least 10 times. I was told to use artificial tears. I've tried every over the counter brand. My allergy doctor prescribed me pataday which did not provide any relief. Then I was put on Azelastine which didn't do anything either. I'm allergic to the usual: pet dander, mold, pollen...etc. I've tried zyrtec as well as claritin and didn't get any relief. I bought a HEPA air machine as

When i wake up my eyes are red and have dried gunk in the corners. Once i shower and do a compress and put drops the redness goes away, but the itchiness is still there. I take Lodrane24 which is allergy medication and my nose is under control. But my eyes are incredibly dry and itchy and it is driving me insane. I am trying so hard not to scratch.

I know mostly everyone is going to say "ask your vet" or "take him to the vet," but it's the weekend and the vet's is closed. I know my dog has allergies, because he was diagnosed with them a year ago; however, he was only prescribed a pill and he still has red, watery eyes. I have a bottle of unused Pataday (olopatadine) eye drops, meant for humans, that I would like to use on my dog. I just want to know if it is safe to use these eye drops on dogs? Does anyone have a dog with eye allergie

Hi! Im 19 years old and have had dry eyes since I was 13. About a month ago my eyes became even drier and started to produce this stingy clear discharge, that like wraps around my eyes. I've had it now for 2 months. I have already been to an ophthalmologist and they prescribed pataday, but even that doesn't seem to be working. Has anyone else had this and cured it? or does anyone know something that will relieve the symptoms? Thanks!

I was prescribed Pataday for my allergies because my eyes can get really red. My doctor said that I can use them when I need them and now I need them but they have been in my car for a few months. Is it still safe to use them? Or should I use an over the counter one that i've got somewhere in my medicine cabinet?

I have these drops in my medicine cabinet and I keep waking up with very red dry eyes. They don't really itch very bad or anything I just want to clear the redness. Will pataday work or do I need to go buy visine?

in april my left eye became very red and inflamed, very itchy 1 week later, both were infected- stringy discharge that leaves my eyes stuck together in the morning stuffy nose since May in May began developing small, itchy, red, raised bumps (like pimples) on outer vaginal lips. herpes test negative. only thing seen on culture was small amount of yeast. 10 days later, larger outbreak of itchy red hives down legs and on butt lasting 1 week, treated/cured by prednisone & zantac- claim to be a

its began in one eye and now affects both. discharge sometimes glues my eyes together while i sleep, and sometimes i wake up with tears "dried" on my cheeks. this started in April, and still continues. originally diagnosed with allergic conjuncitivis the last 2 years, but that only lasts May-June. this has never been this long before. i was given FML steroid eye drops in April, and used them intermittently and now haven't used them for a month. i've also tried artificial tears, Pataday mast-ce

I have really bad eye allergies and the doctor has pulled me out of my contact permantley. This is because I dont want to take Pataday (category C) while trying to get pregnant/be pregnant again. The eye doc said they will all be Cat C. The doc told me the best I will be able to do is use a cold compress and artifical tears. It is bad enough that I have scarring on my eyelids and the discharge when it gets bad blurs my vision + it itches! I really need to limit my Rxs because I had know I

hello, i have been wearing contact lenses for 15 years (i'm 26) and over the past 5 years i have developed eye allergies that are almost too much to take. I always have bloodshot eyes that burn, itch and have a foreign-body like sensation. I have told my eye doctor this for 3 years and he always put me on Pataday anti-allergy drops along with artificial tears and refresh liquid-gels. But the pataday does very little to help the problem. I consulted with another doctor at the same practice an

I have eye blisters in my lower eye lids like this (http://derek.broox.com/photo/qc-birthday-visit/10833/dad-got-a-huge-blister-on.jpg) I got them checked out by my eye doctor, and got pataday for them, but I really can't afford it again. Do you know any other over the counter eye drops? also natural remedies are totally welcome! thanks.

What else can I do? I moved to Louisiana in the USA and I got terrible eye allergies, Very Very Puffy, itchy, Red eyes for days, I can varely open my eyes sometimes. I already got the vaccine shots "all of them" "for months", I tried Pataday, Optivar, Vigamox, Astropo, Veramyst, Zyrtec, Benadryl, Naphcon A, all together! by doctor prescription, and my allergies are worst than ever. I did the tea bags, the ice spoons on my eyes, everything at home is against allergens. I have no idea of what e

I have a two year old who is constantly sick..he is on Singular and claritin, flonase, pataday eye drops and pulmicort and albuterol inhalers to treat his allergies and asthma..over the last couple of weeks he will be fine during the day while awake but as soon as he falls asleep whether it be for naptime or nighttime he starts an awful coughing fit that lasts a better half of the night disrupting his sleep ( causes him to vomit and sometimes gasp for air)as well as the households..i thought m

ok so lately, my eyes feel like they BURN when i put on my make up (the whole eyelid area and under the eye and a little lower too) i dont know why tho. i do one think it is my make up because i noticed it recently and ive had the same makeup routine for a while. but i have been using 2 new medications. one is retin-a micro (acne/scar medication) but when i apply it i completely avoid anywhere near my eyes. and i have been using pataday eye drops. theyre for allergies and swollen eye tissu

I have been suffering for a couple weeks with allergy from crap that is in the air. I have lots of mucus (sorry I know that is gross). I wake up with stuff in my eyes, my eyes itch and hurt, they cry a lot. I wear hard contacts and don't have eye glasses. My doctor just gives me a prescription to Pataday but that stuff is expensive. At night I just put a cold water towel on my face till I go to sleep. What could I do to help this problem. I haven't tried much so any advice would help. Thank yo

I have extremely irritated eyes. Have always been sensitive to light and in the past 3 years I get pain when looking at a computer screen or TV for even 5 minutes sometimes. Sometimes I"m able to stay on the computer a little more. I've been going to an ophthalmologist for the past 45 days but he cant see anything wrong with my eyes. He gave me pred forte 1% along with Pataday(expensive!) the first visit and now I'm on loteprednol etabonate 2% along with the Pataday. The redness in my eyes are

I have heard that it takes some time for pataday to really get into your system and start working? Someone told me fourteen days. Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

For 3 months my eyes and eyelids have been swollen, burning, itching, and irritated. I have been to an optometrist and an ophthalmologist. I was given Lotemax (a steroid eye drop) and it cleared it up for about 2-3 weeks. Then, it came right back. The ophthalmologist told me to take my contacts out and use Pataday (an allergy eye drop), but the Pataday burns my eyes even more. It's painful! I am at my wits end! I have changed my soap, make-up remover, and all my eye make-up, but with no

For the past 4 months I have had intense crazy dry eyes, my eyeball looks so dry and unwatery when I look at it and it is constant RED. When I put on my glasses it makes no difference in the vision like it was before but if I put on contacts its almost crystal clear. In the morning my eyes feel super dry and it feels like sometimes there is mucus on in my upper eyelid and if I bilnk it gets stuck on my eye ball and it becomes hard to see, it feels slimey and thick and a bit stick. I went to th

I am 10 weeks pregnant and suffer from horrible allergies. When my eyes itch like crazy I put one drop of pataday in each eye, but usually only once a week. I know pataday is cat c.... but I was wondering if anyone ever used these drops while pregnant? If so, did everything turn out fine with the baby?

I was diagnosed with GPC around early September (so it's been almost two months). The GPC was in my right eye in particular with LITTLE GPC in my left eye. I haven't worn my contacts since then. It's not AS bad as it was before I went to the ophthalmologist because the pain in my right eye was so bad that I couldn't sleep. But the blood vessels in the "left part" (toward my nose) of my right eye HAVE NOT GONE DOWN. I do FEEL better, but that's not saying much. The doctor put me on Vigamox a

On a Friday night, 8/21, I went to a baseball game and wore my contact lenses. The next day, my right eye was in a LOT of pain. So the following week, I went to the ophthalmologist, and she said I had Giant Papillary Conjunctivitis. She put me on Vigamox (anti-biotic) and Pataday for one week. She also told me to lubricate my eyes with GenTeal or Optive eye drops (NOT Clear Eyes or Vizine). Since then, there's been some improvement, but the right eye's blood vessels are still visible. Re

I have eye allergies since Feb and not going away. Went to doctor like four times. He would prescribe me Lotemax followed by pataday. For one month it will be fine but the itchiness comes back. Its very itchy near the tear drop of both the eye and red. Itchiness is every alternate eye on alternate day. I have almost spend 500 dollar and can not afford to spend more. I am wondering if my contact is causing these.

This issue with my right eye started back in March of this year. Starting in January I start wearing soft contact lenses for the first time ever and things were going great until my eye started producing an excessive amount of mucus. it was getting to the point of covering the contact lenses The mucus was coming out in ropes/strands and was getting to the point of covering the contact lenses I immediately stopped wearing the lenses and visited the eye doctor. The doctor thought it was pi

I just got Giant Papillary Conjunctivitis, and my doctor gave me Vigamox (which is an antibiotic) and Pataday (allergy medication). Once this is all said and done, will oxygen-friendly contact lenses help prevent GPC?

Hello, I have a two and a half year old daughter who has been for the past year in a out of the doctors office with runny noses, occassional cough, and puffy watery eyes. They gave her almost every allergy medicine there is and nothin seems to work more long term. We did blood tests and the test are coming out negetive for just about everything from indoor/outdoor irritants to common food allergies but they are all negetive. She was born right on time so she is not a premee nor did she have an

My eyes are SO RED and itchy. I used Pataday drops (RX)which normally help a lot and quickly, but this is horrible. How do I know if it is allergy or infection? I am traveling and hate to see a doctor for something that seems pretty benign, just driving me crazy... thanks.

I had itchy eye continuously. I went to doctor many time. First he prescribed pataday second time he prescribed another antihistamine can;t remember the name now. After a month now my eyes are in same condition again. Its unbearable ithcy near the tear drop and very red. Please advice what should I do. Not sure in anything in my home is causing this?

My eyes started to get very red and I wear contacts so I thought that was what was bothering them so I took them out. After a few days I went to the family doctor and they gave me gentomicin (sorry about the spelling) and it got worse. So then I was put on tobramin (sp?) and I took a steroid because my eyes became large and puffy and felt like I got punched in the face. Then that didn't work so I went to the eye doctor and he gave me TobraDex which is like a gel cream I put in my eyes at night

My eyes have been bothering me for a YEAR now. It started in May 2008 when I moved to Austin from Dallas. I wrote it off as having to do with being pregnant and wore my glasses mostly. I finally went to the doctor in October (when my eye was swollen shut and crusted over) and was diagnosed with Keratitis and given tobramycin drops. I could not take the recommended steroidal drops because I was pregnant. The problem came back. I started going to a doctor closer to my home in December, following
