Softvisc 0.1 % Eye Drops 10 ML

New Softvisc Lubricant Eye Drops are used for the following:

• Providing symptomatic relief for dry eye syndrome.

• Lubricating and rewetting the surface of the eye.

• Protection of the eye against further irritation.

• Supplementing natural tear production when there's a deficiency.

To use New Softvisc Lubricant Eye Drops, follow these steps:

• Start by ensuring your hands are clean to avoid contamination.

• Tilt your head back slightly and pull down your lower eyelid to create a small pocket.

• Hold the dropper above the eye, squeeze out drops as directed by your doctor.

• Close your eye and gently press your finger to the inside corner of the eye for about 1 minute to keep the liquid from draining into your tear duct.

• Do not touch the tip of the dropper or let it touch your eye or any other surface.

• Replace the cap after each use.

• If you need to use other eye drops, wait at least 5 minutes before applying them. Always consult your doctor for specific advice.

• Use the solution within one month after opening the vial.

• If irritation persists or increases,

  discontinue the use and consult the Physician.

New Softvisc Lubricant Eye Drops are instilled topically.

New Softvisc Lubricant Eye Drops contain two active ingredients:

• Sodium Hyaluronate (0.1%): This naturally occurring polysaccharide has viscoelastic and water-retaining properties. When administered, it forms a protective coating on the ocular surface, stabilises the tear film, and prolongs corneal wetting time. It also promotes healing of corneal epithelial wounds.

• Oxychloro Complex (0.01%): This patented formulation contains electrolytes that mimic the ionic composition of natural tears. These electrolytes assist in maintaining the osmotic balance on the ocular surface and support the integrity of the corneal epithelium.

• Store New Softvisc Lubricant Eye Drops at room temperature, below 25°C.

• Keep the product away from direct sunlight and moisture.

• Always remember to keep the container tightly closed after use.

• New Softvisc Lubricant Eye Drops should be kept out of reach of children.

• Hydrate well. Drinking a sufficient amount of water can help manage dry eye syndrome by keeping your body, including your eyes, properly hydrated.

• Try to limit screen time. Extended periods in front of screens can further exacerbate symptoms of dry eye syndrome. If this is unavoidable due to work or other commitments, remember to take regular breaks and blink frequently to moisten your eyes.
