Do allergies bother your eyes? (you’re not alone; an estimated 80 million Americans are affected). The good news: new anti-allergy medications are making it easier to relieve symptoms.
1. Pataday: this new, more concentrated version of Patanol only requires one dosage a day – an especially big advantage for contact lens wearers. The manufacturer is offering a $10 rebate on their website.
2. Zaditor (similar to Patanol) is now available without a prescription – though it does require twice a day dosing to be effective. Another medication in this same category that was recently changed to over the counter (no prescription required) availability is Alaway.
