Composition of Genteal Eye Drops
Genteal Eye Drops contains Hypromellose (Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose). It belongs to the Eye drops class of medicines.
Uses of Genteal Eye Drops
- Soothes dry eyes
- Lubricates eyes
- Preservative-free
Benefits of Genteal Eye Drops
- In Eye infection
- Genteal clears the bacteria causing a red, sticky, painful eye, so the discharge, grittiness and redness settle within days.
- In Eye inflammation
- Genteal calms inflammation inside or on the surface of the eye, relieving redness, pain and sensitivity to light.
- In Dry eyes
- Genteal lubricates the surface of the eye, relieving the gritty, burning, tired feeling of dry eyes, especially after screen use or in air-conditioning.
- In Glaucoma
- Genteal lowers the pressure inside the eye, which is what protects the optic nerve from the slow, painless damage glaucoma causes to sight.
- In Allergic conjunctivitis
- Genteal relieves the itching, watering and redness of an allergic eye, so you can stop rubbing and the eye can settle.
How Genteal Eye Drops works
Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose acts directly on the surface and inside of the eye where it is instilled.
How to take Genteal Eye Drops
Tilt head back, pull lower eyelid down, apply 1-2 drops in the affected eye(s), blink a few times to spread the solution
Take it exactly as your doctor prescribed. Do not change the dose or stop early on your own.
Missed dose and overdose
If you miss a dose
Apply it as soon as you remember. If it is nearly time for the next application, skip the missed one — applying extra does not make up for it.
If you take too much
An overdose of this medicine is unlikely from eye use; flush the eye with clean water if too much is instilled. Do not wait for symptoms to appear — go to the nearest emergency department and take the pack or strip with you.
Side effects of Genteal Eye Drops
Most side effects of Genteal are mild and settle as the body gets used to the medicine. The ones reported most often are:
- Stinging on instillation
- Blurred vision for a few minutes
- Watering
- Redness

Stop the medicine and get help at once for a rash, swelling of the face or lips, wheezing or difficulty breathing. Tell your doctor about any side effect that persists or worries you.

Warnings and precautions
Never let the dropper tip touch your eye, eyelid or fingers — that is how a bottle becomes contaminated and causes a worse infection. Discard the bottle one month after you first open it, even if drops remain. Remove soft contact lenses before instilling drops and wait fifteen minutes before putting them back, unless the drops are specifically made for use with lenses. Seek same-day care for eye pain, marked redness, sensitivity to light or any loss of vision. Steroid eye drops must only be used under medical supervision — used wrongly they can raise eye pressure and damage sight. Glaucoma drops must be used every day for life; there are no symptoms until sight is already lost.
Do not take Genteal if
Not for anyone with a known allergy to this medicine or to any ingredient in the pack. Not for anyone with a known allergy to the preservative in the preparation.
Interactions with other medicines
Beta blocker eye drops can be absorbed enough to slow the heart and tighten the airways — tell your doctor if you have asthma or a heart condition.

Quick tips for Genteal Eye Drops
