Eye drops are a key part of the treatment resources used by an ophthalmologist.
Some of the most common eye drops that we can find are:
- Drops to dilate the pupil during an eye exam.
- Drops to relieve redness of the eyes.
- Dry eye lubricating drops.
- Drops to relieve eye pruritus (anti-allergic drops).
- Anesthesia drops before surgery.
- Antibiotic drops for some infections.
- Drops to reduce intraocular pressure used in the treatment of long-term glaucoma.
Because there are so many different types of eye drops, it is difficult to generalize about it.
But the following are some things that apply to all of them.
Pay attention to your doctor:
Your ophthalmologist can tell you what you should know about any type of eye drops that are prescribed, those used in any procedure, or those sold without a medical formula.
Never put anything in your eyes that was not meant to be in contact with them.
Use the eye drops as indicated:
Be sure to apply the appropriate amount of drops at the indicated time.
For drops that are sold with a prescription, you should faithfully follow your doctor's recommendations.
For drops sold without medical formula, follow the instructions on the package or label.
Make sure the goas really enter your eyes:
It can be difficult to get the drops into the eye without spilling, without falling where it is not or also apply more than necessary.
Learn how to apply the eye drops and ask for help if you need it.
