Is Cromolyn Sodium Opthalmic Solution Advisable For Red Eyes?
Hi Dr. I am having some red eye problem this year. It started around January and still going on. I have seen eye Dr. for 4 times they tried with so many different eye drops but could not cure it. Yesterday I went to allergy Dr. and he gave me Cromolyn Sodiaum opthalmic Sol., is it the right medicine?

Hello
It seems from the history that you are having redness of eyes probably allergic in nature.
The treatment of the condition is by use of anti allergic eye drops.
Cromolyn sodium is an antialletgic drug and it acts by stabilizing the mast cells.
It is useful in mild to moderate allergies, hence you can use the drug.
Thank you
