No: I never have patients use eye drops for very long. Once opened, they can all grow fungi or bacteria, despite the preservatives in them. Get a new bottle.

Med use: The medication is likely still fine as long as it was not contaminated by touching it on your lashes during it's previous use. If you are not sure, get a new one for use.
