The ruling on the taste of eye drops reaching the throat

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Yes, may Allah reward you. Honorable Shaykh, Umm Nura sent two questions. She says: Does an eye drop invalidate the fast if its taste reaches the throat?

Answer:
There is no doubt that if its taste reaches his throat, and he is intentionally putting drops in his eye, it invalidates the fast. But if it does not reach his throat, he does not break his fast by it. However, the better and more correct thing for him is to take the detail regarding his eye at night, so that he is safe from it reaching his throat.
