Eyefil 1% Eye Drop 10ml

Carboxymethylcellulose Sodium is an ocular lubricant, contributing to an alleviation of symptoms seen in moderate to severe dry eye syndromes (DES) and long-lasting protection against dryness and irritation of the affected eyes. This is a lubricating formulation similar to normal tears. The pharmacological effect of the active substance, Carboxymethylcellulose Sodium, is not receptor-mediated, but is due to its property as a viscosity enhancer, resulting in increased retention time of this eye drop.

1. Adult use: Instill 1 drop in the affected eye(s) 4 times a day or as needed.
2. Pediatric use: This eye drop should not be used in infants and small children under 3 years.
3. Geriatric use: No overall differences in safety or effectiveness have been observed between elderly and other adult patients.

Instructions for Drop Instillation-

• Step-1: Hold the bottle directly below the cap and turn the cap to open the bottle.
• Step-2: Tilt your head backwards and hold the bottle above your eye. Pull the lower eyelid down and look up the blue tip. Squeeze the bottle gently in the middle and let a drop fall into your eye. Do not squeeze too hard.
• Step-3: Close your eye and press the inner corner of the eye with your finger for about two minutes. This helps to stop the medicine from getting into the rest of the body.
• Step-4: After each use you may shake the bottle once in a downwards direction or recap.

If several medicines are to be administered to the eye, there should be an interval of at least 5 minutes between each application.

This eye drop is contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to any ingredient of the product.
