Overview
Distributor inventory | Drop
Uses & Benefits
Dry eye syndrome (keratoconjunctivitis sicca), relief of eye irritation, burning and foreign body sensation due to dryness, protection from environmental irritation (wind, dust, screen use)
How It Works
Carboxymethylcellulose is a lubricating artificial tear that binds water and increases tear film stability. It forms a protective, viscoelastic layer over the ocular surface to reduce friction and relieve dryness-related discomfort.
Directions for Use
For ophthalmic use only. Instill 1 drop in the affected eye(s) 3–4 times daily or as directed by doctor; may be used more frequently if needed. Remove contact lenses before use and reinsert after 15 minutes; avoid touching the dropper tip; keep bottle tightly closed.
Side Effects
Temporary blurred vision, mild burning or stinging, eye irritation, redness, watery eyes, foreign body sensation
Warnings & Precautions
Do not use if solution changes colour or becomes cloudy or if seal is broken. Stop use and consult a doctor if eye pain, persistent redness/irritation, vision changes, or symptoms worsen or persist beyond 72 hours. If using other eye medicines, keep a 10–15 minute gap (use this after medicated drops unless advised). Use caution while driving immediately after instillation due to transient blurring. Not for injection; avoid contaminating dropper tip.
Drug Interactions
No significant systemic interactions expected due to topical use; spacing required with other ophthalmic preparations (10–15 minutes).
