Use in children under 3 years

A single-dose container contains a sufficient amount of solution to treat both eyes in one application.
Instructions for use
- Wash your hands.
- Open the aluminum bag and take out a strip of single-dose containers.
- Separate one single-dose container from the strip (Fig. 1).
- Put the remaining single-dose containers back in the aluminum bag and fold the edge of the bag. Keep the bag in the box.
- Open the single-dose container by twisting the top end. After opening the container, do not touch the tip of the dropper (Fig. 2).
- Tilt your head back (Fig. 3).
- Pull the lower eyelid down with your finger and hold the container with the other hand. Squeeze the container so that one drop falls into the eye (Fig. 4).
- Close your eyes and press the inner corner of your eye with the tip of your finger for 1-2 minutes. This prevents the drop from flowing down the tear duct into the throat and most of the drop stays in the eye (Fig. 5). If necessary, repeat steps 6 to 8 in the other eye.
- Discard the single-dose container after use.
