At the suggestion of another TEer, I've used Similasan allergy eye drops with good success. I've readily found them at Target and other drug stores. I wear hard contacts so I have to use the drops about 15 minutes before inserting my contacts, but it hasn't been a problem. The only issue with Similasan is that they have a 30-day shelf life once opened.

Live with intention. Walk to the edge. Listen hard. Practice wellness. Play with abandon. Laugh. Choose with no regret. Continue to learn. Appreciate your friends. Do what you love. Live as if this is all there is.

I've used Opcon-A for allergy eyes, and they've worked well. They burn a little at first, but it subsides quickly. If it's a contact day, I do the 15 minute thing.

I've used OTC Zatidor drops for itchy eyes with fairly good success.

Nothing beats Patanol for me. It actually stops the mast cells from degranulating which for me works wonderful.

I'm glad they worked for you! I now wear permeable contacts when riding with no problem at all
