Lacrimos Eye Drops 10ml

Lacrimos Eye Drops are used for:

• Providing symptomatic relief in dry eye conditions.

• Managing keratoconjunctivitis sicca, also known as dry eye syndrome.

• Helping in exposure to keratitis, an inflammation of the cornea due to dryness.

• Assisting in conditions of decreased corneal sensitivity.

• Supporting individuals with Sjögren's syndrome, a disorder that causes dryness in eyes and mouth.

• Alleviating ocular irritation caused by wind, smoke, dust or air conditioning.

• Reducing post-operative dryness after refractive eye surgeries.

Follow these simple steps while using Lacrimos Eye Drops:

• Shake the bottle well before use.

• Tilt your head back and gently pull down your lower eyelid.

• Squeeze the bottle gently to release one drop into your eye.

• Close your eye for 1-2 minutes to allow the drop to spread evenly across the surface of your eye.

• Avoid touching the dropper tip to any surface to prevent contamination.

• Replace the cap after every use.

For specific advice on how often to use these drops consult your doctor.

Lacrimos Eye Drops are instilled topically.

The Lacrimos Eye Drops contain two active ingredients:

• Sodium Carboxymethyl Cellulose (0.5%): This works as a lubricant and increases the viscosity of tears. It reduces friction and irritation on the ocular surface by enhancing corneal wettability and prolonging tear film breakup time.

• Oxychloro Complex (0.005%): This ingredient acts as a preservative with antibacterial and antifungal properties. It maintains the sterility of the eye drop bottle and prevents contamination by releasing chlorite ions that disrupt microbial cell membranes and enzymes.

• Store Lacrimos Eye Drops below 30°C in a dry place, away from direct sunlight.

• Do not refrigerate or freeze the product.

• Always keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use.

• Keep the medicine out of the reach of children.

• If you're experiencing dry eyes due to environmental factors, try wearing sunglasses outdoors to help shield your eyes from wind, dust and bright sunlight that can exacerbate dryness.

• Maintain a healthy diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids, found in fatty fish and flaxseeds, which may help improve tear quality and reduce symptoms of dry eye.
