Eye drops are a common over-the-counter medication used to treat various eye conditions, such as dry eyes, allergies, and infections. They typically come in small plastic bottles with a dropper tip for easy application. Like any other medication, eye drops have an expiration date printed on the packaging.
Using expired eye drops can pose risks to your eye health. Over time, the effectiveness of the active ingredients may diminish, leading to reduced therapeutic benefits. Additionally, expired products may harbor bacteria or other pathogens, increasing the likelihood of eye infections or irritation.
While not all expired drops will cause harm, it’s generally advisable to avoid using them and replace them with fresh ones to ensure their safety and effectiveness.
