Expert advice for Restasis Eye Drop
Your doctor has prescribed Restasis 0.05% Ophthalmic Emulsion 0.4ml to relieve inflammation (redness and swelling) in dry eye disease. Apply pressure on the corner of the eye (close to the nose) for about 1 minute, immediately after instilling the drop so that the medicine does not drain away from the eye. When applying multiple eye medications, wait for at least 5-10 minutes before delivering the next medication in the same eye to avoid dilution. Take care to prevent contact of eye dispenser with eye, eyelid, eyelashes, or finger to avoid infection. You may experience a stinging sensation for 1-2 mins after instilling Restasis 0.05% Ophthalmic Emulsion 0.4ml. Notify your doctor if it persists for longer. Make sure to use within 4 weeks of opening the bottle.
