Quick tips

Lacrimos Eye Drop

  • Your doctor has prescribed Lacrimos-GX Eye Drop to reduce dryness in the eyes.
  • Wash your hands first before applying Lacrimos-GX Eye Drop. To avoid contamination, do not touch the dropper tip or let it touch your eye or any other surface.
  • Apply pressure on the corner of the eye (close to the nose) for about 1 minute, immediately after putting the medication. This will prevent the medication from draining out. Try not to blink or rub your eye.
  • Wait for at least 5-10 minutes before delivering the next medication in the same eye to avoid dilution of this medicine.
  • Stinging sensation may occur for 1-2 minutes. Notify your doctor if it persists for longer.
  • Make sure to use it within 4 weeks of opening the bottle.
