ABOUT CROMOLYNTM
Conjunctivitis is a common disorder of the eyes and can happen to anyone under various circumstances. Conjunctivitis, also known as Pink Eye, is an inflammation of the conjunctiva, the thin, transparent layer that covers the inner eyelid and the white portion at the front of the eye, which is known as the sclera.
While Infectious Conjunctivitis, which occurs due to bacterial or viral infections; and Chemical Conjunctivitis, which happens due to air pollutants or chemicals, can arise due to specific factors, Allergic Conjunctivitis is perennial, a lasting period, or seasonal and can affect individuals almost every year.
CromolynTM Eye Drops is a non-prescription drug intended to be used for the prevention and relief of the eye symptoms of Seasonal Allergic Conjunctivitis.
WHAT IS CROMOLYNTM?
During an allergic reaction, various substances are released by certain cells in your eyes. These are called mast cells. The substances released by these cells affect blood vessels, nerves, and glands in your eyes in different ways, causing redness, itching and tearing. CromolynTM Eye Drops act on the mast cells to prevent them from releasing the substances that cause these symptoms.
