Polysporin NOT a Great Option for Pink Eye and I LOVE Opticrom
By admin | September 11, 2008
Well, back from doctor with prescriptions in hand. Taking Garamycin drops to clear up this eye infection- tho doctor thought possible it is reaction to Polysporin or contact lens solution. The eye doctor looked at my eyes Tuesday and she said it was bacterial… but my family doctor doesn’t think so. She di give me some drops to help relieve the pain/burning/itch in my eys and its like a miracle drug. The drops are actually over the counter, Opticrom.. I think they are a steroid drop that relieves symptoms and does not cure.
I cannot recommend these drops enough- the terrible symptoms of my pink eye were almost done within seconds of using the Opticrom.
My doctor also said that lots of people have a reaction to Polysporin and she does not recommend for eye infection or pink eye. This makes sense. My eyes seemed to get worse when I started ti use. I out the drops in after about an hour of noticing my eyes were itchy and I had full blown horrible crusty eyes the next morning. The only thing that helped was stopping the drops and using warm salt water compress with sterile cotton pads.
Hopefully nightmare will be over soon.
