I have itchy, watery eyes. I previously found relief with Betnesol Tablets, but they are no longer available. Can you suggest a substitute?
Alternative treatments may include steroid eye drops, such as Prednisolone or Dexamethasone, which should only be prescribed and monitored by an ophthalmologist. Non-steroidal options, such as Olopatadine or Ketotifen eye drops, which act as antihistamines or mast-cell stabilisers, can also safely relieve itching and redness. Additionally, artificial tears can help soothe irritation. It is important not to self-medicate with oral steroids and to consult a doctor for the safest and most effective substitute.
