Summary
Eye Drop Installation
Helpful Tips
1. Before applying drops, wash hands with soap and water.

2. Keep eye drop container clean. Avoid touching the dropper against the eye or anything else.

3. After applying drops, replace the cap right away. Do not wipe or rinse off dropper.

4. If you are using more than one eye drop, you should wait at least f ive minutes before applying the second eye drop. he lower lid pocket into which the drop is placed is small and cannot hold more than one drop at a time. Placing more than one drop at a time causes an overflow, and washes the eye drop from the eye. Bring your eye drops with you every time you have an appointment with your eye doctor. Your eye doctor can help you learn to use your eye drops correctly.
