Optizinc

Optizinc Eye Drop is used to relieve red, itchy, and watery eyes due to allergies.

This medicine is safe and effective if used in the dose and duration advised by your doctor.

Before the start of the treatment, inform your doctor if you have any problems with your eyesight, or severe eye pain had a recent eye injury, recently had conjunctivitis, have dry eyes, or have glaucoma (due to increased eye pressure).

Always wash your hands before (and after) using Optizinc Eye Drop. This prevents you from passing the infection from one eye to the other. Remove the cap just before using your medicine and replace it as soon as you have finished. Avoid touching the nozzle of the bottle with your fingers. Tilt your head back and gently pull down your lower eyelid with a clean finger. Hold the bottle over the eye and allow a single drop to fall into the space between your lower lid and your eye. Close your eye and gently press your finger over the inside corner of your eye (over the eyelid) for about a minute. This helps prevent the drop from draining out of the eye. Repeat in your other eye if your doctor has told you to do this.

If you usually wear contact lenses, do not wear them while you're using Optizinc Eye Drop. You can re-insert the lens 15 minutes after using Optizinc Eye Drop. Contact your doctor if there is any eye irritation that persists.

Stinging, burning sensation, itching, and irritation are some of the side effects of this medicine. However, it subsides after some time. In case, it continues for a long period of time or becomes worse, consult your doctor.

If you happen to miss a dose, take the missed dose as soon as you remember. Skip the missed dose if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose. Do not take extra medicine to make up for the missed dose. Discuss this with your healthcare provider. In order to avoid missing a dose, use a calendar, pillbox, alarm clock, or cell phone alert to help you remember to take your medication. You may also ask a family member a friend to remind you or check in with you to be sure you are taking your medication.

Do not worry if a few more drops of Optizinc Eye Drop accidentally falls into your eye. However, try to be careful and inform your doctor if you notice any side effects.

You do not need to refrigerate Optizinc Eye Drop after opening the bottle. However, store it in a cool and dry place, below 30℃. Make sure to use it within 4 weeks of opening the bottle.
