I appreciate you replying to the two questions, situation provided in detail below. As I have already visited doctor I know the medicine works for me. But I want to check on any side effects of using eye drops for dryness, any alternatives home remedies. Thanks!! I have irritation in eyes. I had eye doctor appointment and they prescribed me to use eye drops for dryness. It works for me i take it based on Doctor's dosage(2drops in each eye , 3-4 times a day). Medicine name SYSTANE ULTRA Question 1::: Is it safe to frequently use eye drops for dryness (as Per Doc eye irritation caused due to dryness) ? Question 2::: I also want to check if suppose i do not have eye drops, can i pour rose water into my eyes. Irritation subsides when i keep it but for smaller duration. Any home remedies immediate tips to reduce eye irritation?
