Keep the eye closed for a few moments to facilitate the distribution of the administered liquid throughout the inside of the eye.

The application of OJOSBEL does not cause any discomfort; on the contrary, it immediately provides a feeling of coolness and well-being.

Act with caution. Avoid touching the end of the dropper vial with your hands or any object.

Each vial contains the necessary amount for one application in each eye (single-dose vial). If there is any remainder in the vial, discard it for reasons of sterility.
