To avoid contamination, do not allow the tip of the bottle dropper to touch the eyes, fingertips or any other surface; replace the cap immediately after use. If another ophthalmic agent will be used with polyvinyl alcohol, separate the administration of the other agent by at least 5 minutes. Remove contact lenses prior to administration. Discontinue use and seek medical advice if eye pain, changes in vision, and continued eye redness or irritation occur, or if the condition worsens or persists for >72 hours.

Tác dụng
Description:
Mechanism of Action: Polyvinyl alcohol, a nonionic surfactant, is used as an ophthalmic lubricant. It protects and lubricates the mucous membrane surfaces of the eye, thereby relieving dryness and irritation. Additionally, it stabilises the tear film and increases the tear viscosity to prevent tear evaporation and drainage. |
Bảo quản
Store between 15-25°C. Do not use if the ophthalmic solution becomes cloudy or changes in colour.
