For Seasonal Allergic Conjunctivitis "Do not buy Pataday. My vision has become blurry. My eyes hurt in the back of them and pressure around my sockets. It is also giving me headaches. I also wake up with redder eyes than I did before taking them."

For Seasonal Allergic Conjunctivitis "Bought these on the advice of my optometrist, who said I had moderate allergies as evidenced by histamine bumps under my eyelids. Ridiculous price for a tiny bottle. After the first dose, I got a severe headache, stuffed-up sinuses, and woke up with puffy eyes. In other words, the 'cure' was worse than the disease. Ask for a sample before you waste your money on these overpriced, overrated drops."

For Seasonal Allergic Conjunctivitis "As soon as I found and finished this $156.00 bottle of medicine, I had the same symptoms. My eyes hurt and headache, I ended up in the ER with a bill over $1,500.00 (insurance applied to deductible) and back with the same problem within 2 weeks. The ER doctor alone charged me $899.00 and was not participating in my insurance plan even though the hospital that I specifically went to did. Very frustrating. Back to square one. Why are these drops so expensive?"

For Seasonal Allergic Conjunctivitis "Drops work GREAT! I started using them and total relief! I was so excited. Day 4: woke up with eyes so puffy I can barely open them, and I have a headache. Unfortunately, I won’t be continuing using them. If they didn’t do this to me, I’d love them."

For Seasonal Allergic Conjunctivitis "These drops have definitely helped with the itching, but my eyes are still red. And I've developed a sore throat and headache."
