Drops...
Eye drops
I need to buy these and I'm told the only place I could buy them is spain.
I need around 2 cartons (should be around 15 each carton)
Never been to spain but willing to travel there (currently in London)
Any assistance of places I could buy them would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Drops...
The language on the box is Turkish! I think they're made by an American company, only available in certain countries.
Yes, they're available in Spain & should be about €3 per box. There don't seem to be any side effects from having read the Spanish about them on the internet.

They are only normal antibiotic eye drops for conjunctivitis - there will be plenty of alternatives available in other countries.

Re: Drops...
But heck, I could send them to you if you wish.
I'll pop round to the local pharmacy to see if they stock them & how much they are.

We live in Euskadi (Basque country). About 45 minutes drive from Bilbao airport (Loiu). Easy Jet & Vueling have 2-3 flights daily.

Re: Drops...
Agreed. If I needed that much I think I would get a second opinion from a decent opthalmologist! There is no way an infection should last that long and if it did the drops are not working.

Re: Drops...
I can only think as I found myself that due to the recommended limited safe period for using a bottle after opening, another unopened one is soon required, therefore necessitating always having more on hand, though even so 30 bottles, if that is the case, does seem a tad OTT to my way of thinking.
