Any side effects or warnings i should know about systane gel eyedrops?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Allergic reaction: Systane (and most other lubricant eyedrops) are very, very safe - no systemic absorption, they just make a lubricant barrier on the eye. That being said, people can have allergic reactions to nearly anything, so there is always that (albeit small) risk.
