Gocce per occhi
Eye drops are ideal to help with dry or irritated eyes. They can be used both preemptively, as well as after an irritation occurs.
Depending on the type of eye drops, special instructions for their application might have to be followed. More information about these can be found in the information leaflet included in the packaging.
Typically the following should always be remembered:
- Before using eye drops, wash your hands to avoid getting bacteria and dirt in your eye
- Contact lenses should be removed prio to eye drop usage and only re-inserted up to 15 minutes after. (This does not apply to eye drops made to be used while contacts are worn, this will be specified in the product details)
- Tilt your head back and carefully pull your lower lid down a little. Look up.
- Hold the bottle of eye drops close to your eye, but don't touch the eye ball.
- Apply the drops to the lower corners of your eye, while still not touching the eye ball.
- After, let go of your lower eye lid and close your eye slowly. (but not forcefully)
- Hold your eyes closed for one to three minutes. The exact duration depends on the type of drops used, typically this only applies to medicinal eyedrops.
