My doctor prescribed Eyecon eye drops, but they are not available in my area. My eyes are slightly red and sticky. Could you please suggest a suitable alternative?

Eyecon eye drops are commonly used to relieve redness, irritation, and discomfort caused by eye allergies. If this brand is unavailable, you can ask your doctor or pharmacist for similar anti-allergic eye drops that contain an antihistamine, a mild decongestant, and soothing agents. Lubricating eye drops, also called artificial tears, can also help by washing away irritants and reducing stickiness. Since your eyes are red and slightly sticky, this may be due to a mild allergy or an early infection. Keep your eyes clean by gently wiping away any discharge with clean water or a sterile cloth. Avoid touching or rubbing your eyes, and wash your hands regularly to help prevent the spread of infection. Do not use medicated eye drops for a long time without medical advice, as some may cause side effects if overused. If symptoms do not improve within a few days, or if you develop pain, swelling, or blurred vision, please see your doctor again for a proper examination and the most suitable treatment.
