Abstract:
The authors evaluated the efficacy of cromal in the treatment of allergic conjunctivitis. Method: 30 patients (28 males, 12 females) were assigned in two groups: group1:14 patients with seasonal allergic conjuntivitis; group2: 24 patients with vernal keratoconjuntivitis. In a double masked random design, the patients of each group were received cromal eye drops or NaCl 0.9%. Results: eyes treated with cromal eye drops in two groups showed an amelioration of the sign and symptoms of disease compared with eyes received only NaCl 0.9%. Conclusion: cromal seems to be effective in treatment of allergy.
