Ointment or Drops?

[Monika]

I have been suffering from an itchy and runny eye these past few days, so I went to the chemist yesterday and asked for some 'Brolene' eye ointment (that being what cleared it up the last time).

She said that they only had the eye drops, so I settled for that.

I'm now wondering which are the better.

Eye drops are easy to use but tend to run out, whereas eye ointment is tricky to use but stays stuck to your lid/eye better.

What do you think?

I think Monika,that when your birthday is over,you should see your doctor,eyes are too precious to be mucked about with...you know it makes sense

Fortunately I've never had any infections in my eyes, but I would prefer the ointment, for the same reason you gave.
