Description
Sodium Cromoglicate eye drops are medicated drops that help to soothe your irritated eyes when you’re suffering from hay fever or allergies.
They’re perfect for those who experience itchy, red, or watery eyes when pollen season kicks in, or if they get too close to pet dander or dust.
These anti-allergic eye drops are designed to prevent allergy symptoms in your eye, which is also known as allergic conjunctivitis, relieving itchy, puffy eyes.
If you need a way to soothe your poor eyes when the long months of hay fever season come around again, sodium cromoglicate can help you to look your best!
