Sometimes, a simple solution is all you need. At Knight Vision NW, Dr. Knighton provides expert guidance on over-the-counter (OTC) eye medications to help you find safe and effective relief for common eye concerns like dryness, allergies, and redness.
Not all eye drops and treatments are created equal, and some can actually make symptoms worse over time. That’s why we take the time to recommend the best options for your specific needs—whether it’s preservative-free lubricating drops, antihistamine drops for allergies, or gentle cleansers for eyelid health.
No guesswork, no trial and error—just clear, trusted advice so you can care for your eyes with confidence.
