Using It Safely

Open one ampoule, apply as directed, and discard after use. Lubricating drops ease symptoms rather than treating an underlying cause. If your symptoms persist or worsen, or involve eye pain, discharge, significant redness, light sensitivity or changes to your vision, book an eye test so our optometry team can assess what is driving them.
