Sore Eyes

DH got some Optrex sore eyes drops from the chemist which contain witch hazel. He had a very sore eye last week which flared up out of nowhere. He asked the pharmacist for advice and that was what he recommended but in the end he went to the docs and he prescribed antibacterial drops.

My mother used cold teabags, also used to cure styes. Eye drops are certainly much easier but I try to prevent the sore eyes by wearing sunglasses in the cold wind and low sun.
Not tried witch hazel but it is soothing so I should think it would be ok.
Liz Earle Eyebright is good, especially if you keep the bottle in the fridge.

My mum used to give me a small bowl of cold tea to use. Very soothing actually!

Use Optrex eye drops nowadays.
