This medication is indicated for the treatment of signs and symptoms of seasonal allergic conjunctivitis.

1 2
- Wash your hands and remove any contact lenses.
- Take the bottle and unscrew the cap.
- After removing the cap, remove the plastic ring from the seal if it is loose.
- The plastic ring of the seal should not be broken before the first use.
- Hold the bottle, upside down, between your thumb and index finger.
- Tilt your head back. Gently separate the eyelid from the eye with one finger, until a pocket forms between the eyelid and your eye, where the drop should fall (Figure 1).
- Bring the tip of the bottle close to the eye. You may find it helpful to use a mirror.
- Do not touch the eye, eyelid, or surrounding areas with the dropper, as the drops remaining in the bottle may become infected.
- Gently press the base of the bottle to release one drop of the medication at a time.
- Do not squeeze the bottle; it is designed so that gentle pressure on the base is sufficient (Figure 2).
- If you are applying drops to both eyes, repeat the above steps for the other eye.
- Screw the cap back on the bottle immediately after using the product.
- If a drop falls outside the eye, try again.
