My wife was having trouble with her eyes itching very bad most days, and the optometrist had suggested different eye drops that he recommend, but none of them provided much relief. He finally wrote a prescription for her, and when we took it to the pharmacist to have it filled, it was going to be over a 100 dollars, and that was with our insurance also paying some. Seeing we had some discomfort with the price, he asked if we had tried Zaditor. Of course we hadn't, and the pharmacist said that Zaditor had similar ingreatents to the product that the prescription was written for, well to make a long story short. Zaditor relived the itching problem, within a few minutes and my wife only has to reapply it, less than once a day. It saved us around 100 dollars, because the Zaditor only cost around 7 dollars a bottle. Great product and welcome relief!
Don't buy other allergy eye drops. My doctor let me know that the others can't be used long term and aren't really good for the eyes. You should only buy an allergy eye drop which contains Ketotifen. This may cost more but it works the best for your symptoms and is the safest. I suffer from various allergies year around and keep a bottle in my purse. My daughter went through a horrible allergy spell where gunk kept coming out of her eyes and wouldn't stop no matter what she did. Bought her a bottle and sent it to her (she's in college) and she said it immediately relieved her symptoms. Alcon Zaditor is an excellent brand and is the only allergy eye drop you should use.
Note: If you are looking for something to 'get the red out', this is not it. That's a chemical which acts differently and you can buy seperately. Remember not to use red eye drops long term, they aren't good for the eyes long term either. When using this product, you probably will notice less of red eyes as it's treating your allergies. But to get rid of 'red eye' immediately, this isn't your product. Which is probably a good thing Alcon Zaditor sells this item with only Ketotifen in it. Safest to use long term.
I had tried a bunch of different OTC allergy eye drops and nothing got rid of that feeling that resembles a piece of sand in your eye, the feeling that makes you want to rub your eyes until tears are flowing and the skin is raw around them.
I asked my allergy doctor what he recommended and right away he said Zaditor.
I ordered a two pack, used one drop in each eye, morning and night, and though it took a week or so for that sand feeling to completely disappear, it was gone. I didn't realize how close to empty I was and ended up running out before I remembered to reorder. For a couple of days I was fine, then that itching reminded me that I needed to get some more. Reordered it, back to using it regularly, and no problems at all.
Love this stuff. It's a bit more expensive than other allergy eye drops I have bought but it is so worth it.
Great product!. My doctor recommended this over the counter remedy a few years ago, since I suffer from pollen allergies. It's ideal for mild attacks, and I observe no after effects. its relatively higher price for this category of drug, in my opinion, is justified.
I can’t say enough about these. I don’t have crazy allergies, but the pollen has been out of control where I live. I had dry eyes, and they were itchy, which was a problem because when I rub my eyes, it messes with my contacts. My eye doc said he noticed small red allergy bumps in my eye and wanted to prescribe drops. He gave me a prescription for $300 allergy drops that he assumed my insurance would cover (NOT!) but said if those were too expensive, to try these Zaditor drops. I put a drop in each eye every morning 10 minutes before I put my contacts in (doctor’s recommendation) and out a drop in each eye every night when I take my contacts out. I’ve had NO itching, running, redness or issues whatsoever. We went to Disney for a week and I forgot these, and my eyes itched the whole time. These are a must-have!

Description
Zaditor is designed to temporarily relieve itchy eyes for up to 12 hours with just one drop. Twelve hours is a lot of relief, and that’s a good thing. Zaditor is the original triple-action, prescription-strength formula that works in minutes to deliver up to 12 hours of eye itch relief, by targeting itchy eyes right at the source. And unlike most over-the-counter eye drops, Zaditor uses only an antihistamine to temporarily relieve itchy eyes and doesn’t contain a vasoconstrictor—the stuff that only works temporarily to “get the red out.” Since there is no vasoconstrictor, Zaditor is safe to use on children three years and older. Allergens are everywhere. To think that such tiny little particles can pack enough of a punch to derail us is frustrating. So start fighting the allergens that cause itchy eyes—all you need is Zaditor Eye Drops. Use Zaditor to defeat the triggers that cause itchy eyes.
HOW TO USE: Make sure you always wash your hands before applying eye drops.
STOP: It’s easier to apply ZADITOR Eye Drops when you’re not moving. Tilt your head back and look upward. Use your fingertips to gently press the skin just beneath your lower eyelid and then pull it away from the eye to make a space.
DROP: Hold the dropper above your eye and gently squeeze one drop into the space. Be careful not to touch your eyelid or surrounding area with the dropper tip of the bottle. Put one drop in the affected eye(s) twice daily every 8–12 hours, no more than twice per day.
ATTACK: Release your eyelid and gently blink to spread the powerful relief of ZADITOR around your eye.
My optometrist recommended this product after he noticed allergy bumps under my eyelids were likely causing red eye issues. The dry, likely dirty air in my office would leave my eyes red and irritated by the end of the day. Using this product twice a day (then down to once a day) has helped immensely. Use at least 15 minutes before putting in your contacts to give the product a chance to work.
Can't beat Amazon's pricing on this product. Very convenient 2-bottle pack.
These are great. Instantly stops the itching and irritation, without causing my pupils to change sizes like other allergy drops do. It's a rare reaction, but allergy drops like Visine-A cause my pupils to enlarge which can be uncomfortable. These don't and they work great!
For years I've used prescription eye drops to control allergic itchiness. This year my symptoms overwhelmed the meds so I decided to supplement them with Zaditor over the counter drops. They work incredibly well, even to the extent that I've now stopped the prescription drops and get complete relief from the Zaditor drops. Zaditor is a pretty awkward product name, but the product itself is very effective and I highly recommend it.
Ugh!! It's allergy season in the Pacific NW for those of us allergic to evergreen pollen. Sneezing, wheezing, and, for me, itchy and watery eyes. I've tried several different allergy eye drops, and I keep coming back to Zaditor. I first tried this when it was prescription-only, and it really does work the best for me. Later in the year, it's leaf mold in the fall and again I turn to Zaditor.
Two drops in each eye, and I'm good for at least 8 hours. It doesn't cause dry-eye -- a problem with other allergy drops. Really, I will not purchase anything but Zaditor -- it works the best for me with no side effects. Huge thumbs up!
Burns a little bit, but works wonders once you get used to it. My primary care physician noticed how bad my eyes were suffering from allergies. Not long after at an eye exam, my optometrist recommended this for my seasonal allergies. Most of the redness and swelling is now under control.
