OnTears Eye Drops are primarily used for relieving symptoms associated with dry eyes, such as burning, irritation, and discomfort. This medicine is part of a group known as ophthalmic lubricants.

In addition to the primary use, it can also be beneficial in lubricating and rewetting soft and rigid gas permeable (RGP) contact lenses. This helps in creating a protective barrier against further irritation, providing relief during extended periods of lens wear.

It's crucial to consult your doctor for the correct dosage and frequency of this medication. Before starting on this medication, inform your doctor about any current health conditions or ongoing medications. If you experience any side effects while using these eye drops, contact your doctor immediately. It's important to continue with the medication for the duration prescribed by your doctor for optimal results.

Directions for Use of Ontears Eye Drops 15ml

Wash your hands thoroughly before use.
Tilt your head back slightly and pull down your lower eyelid to create a small pocket.
Carefully squeeze out 1 or 2 drops into your eye.
Close your eyes and look downward before blinking a few times to distribute the drops evenly.
Replace the cap immediately after use.
If you're wearing contact lenses, remember to remove them before applying OnTears Eye Drops. Wait for at least 15 minutes before reinserting your lenses. For best results, always consult your doctor about the correct way to use this medicine.

OnTears Eye Drops are instilled topically.

Mild eye irritation
Stinging sensation in the eyes: This is a feeling similar to a slight prick or burn in your eyes.
Burning sensation in the eyes
Redness in the eyes
Watery eyes
Blurred vision
Foreign body sensation: This refers to the feeling that something is in your eye.

Managing the Side Effects:

Most side effects are temporary and generally harmless, which resolve on discontinuing the use of OnTears Eye Drops. However, if you experience any serious side effects or worsening of any of the symptoms, please consult your doctor.

Here are some general guidelines for managing common side effects:

Mild eye irritation: If you feel discomfort, try using the drops before going to sleep.
Blurred vision: If this occurs, wait until your vision clears before you engage in activities like reading or driving.

OnTears Eye Drops contains Carboxymethyl Cellulose (0.5%), which acts on your body in the following manner:

Supplements Conjunctival Mucin Layer: Carboxymethyl cellulose enriches the conjunctival mucin layer of your eyes. This layer is a crucial part of the tear film that helps keep your eyes moist.
Stabilizes and Thickens Precorneal Tear Film: It helps in stabilizing and thickening the precorneal tear film, which is another essential component of your eyes' natural lubrication system.
Prolongs Tear Breakup Time: By enhancing these aspects of the tear film, carboxymethyl cellulose effectively extends the time it takes for tears to evaporate from your eyes.
Increases Viscosity of Tear Film: It also increases the viscosity or thickness of the tear film which enhances its retention time on the eye surface.
Acts as a Protective Barrier: Lastly, it creates a protective barrier against further irritation by adhering to and coating the surface of your eyes. This, in turn, helps to reduce friction and alleviate symptoms of dry eye.
