Optrex Double Action Eye Drops information

What are Optrex Double Action Eye Drops and what are they used for?

Optrex Double Action Eye Drops for Itchy and Watery Eyes are designed to simultaneously rehydrate and lubricate your eyes to provide instant and long lasting relief.

Optrex Double Action eye drops are designed to provide relief for dry, irritated eyes while also reducing redness, making them suitable for those experiencing both symptoms. They are typically used for short-term relief of mild to moderate dry eye symptoms, such as dryness, discomfort, and redness caused by factors such as environmental factors, prolonged computer use, contact lens wear, or other causes of eye irritation.

Optrex Double Action eye drops are lubricating and protecting double action relief drops. They are preservative and phosphate free and can be used up to 3 months after opening. When using for irritated eyes caused by allergies, they are suitable to be used in conjunction with anti-histamine treatments.

    How to use Optrex Double Action Eye Drops

    Adults and children over the age of 6 years:

    1. Wash hands thoroughly before use.
    2. Remove tamper-evident seal prior to first use, and remove cap.
    3. Tilt head backwards and gently squeeze 1-2 drops into each eye.
    4. Blink a few times to ensure then whole eye is covered.
    5. Shake the bottle to remove any residual drop.
    6. Replace the bottle top tightly after use.
    7. Use no more than 10 doses (1-2 drops per eye) per day.
    8. See leaflet for full instructions, warnings and precautions for use.

    Avoid touching the tip of the eyedropper to your eye or any other surface. If you struggle with this, you can try resting your hand on the side of your face and placing the drop in the side of your eye.

    If your symptoms have not improved after use, you should speak to a doctor or pharmacist for advice.
