For Conjunctivitis, Allergic "My eyes were so itchy and uncomfortable! I tried Zaditor and immediately felt relief. After several days' use, dosing once in the morning and once at night, my eyes feel normal again. Even though Zaditor only contains an antihistamine (unlike Visine Allergy), my eyes are no longer red and scratchy feeling. It's so nice to find something OTC that works!"

For Conjunctivitis, Allergic "Started using it first day, it helped. Had a little burning. Second day, eyes were red, eyelids, upper and lower, itched, burned, redness, and swelling around both eyes. Runny nose along with a cough came on day 3. Went to the eye doctor and was told to stop using it, he prescribed another drop that had a steroid in it."
