A member asked:

My eye doctor prescribed alaway to treat my gpc. its been making my eyes 10x more itchy and been causing pain in my left eye. should i stop using it?

Itchy eyes: Talk to your eye doctor about it. It could be a reaction to the medication. You might be better off with a steroid drop short term for management of ocular allergy symptoms.

Yes: Stop the Alaway™ and call your Eye MD & see if he recommends something else. My advice is consider Alomide™ Or Alamast™ 4x/day. Occasionally a topical steroid eye drop is necessary. If you are a contact lens wearer, stop, as your GPC may be related to this. The medications require a prescription, hence the need to call your MD. Non preserved tears are ok in meantime.
