Opcon-A (naphazoline / pheniramine) "If the bottle(s) can't be opened, the drops can't be used. Purchasing a two-bottle pack did no good. I'm a 76-year-old woman who lives alone, 115 miles from the Walmart where the package was bought."

Naphcon-A (naphazoline / pheniramine) "Very effective for red eyes/itching but very harsh. Eyes have a "rebound" effect where they will be redder after use (eg next day), so they are classified as addictive."
