The question

Must I make up the remaining three days of the days I missed fasting, which I had intended to fast completely, knowing that some of the breaking of my fast was due to an illness that necessitated the use of eye drops, which I believed invalidated the fast?

The answer

The effect of using eye drops while fasting is a matter of scholarly disagreement. The Hanafis and some scholars, including Sheikh Al-Islam Ibn Taymiyyah, are of the view that it does not break one's fast.
