Product Description:

What Sodium hyaluronate is used for:

• Sodium hyaluronate eye drops act as artificial tears.
• They make dry eyes feel more comfortable.
• They are used to relieve eye dryness and soreness.
• They moisten, soothe and lubricate the surface of your eye, making it feel more comfortable.

Do not use Sodium hyaluronate:

• Do not use if you have hypersensitivity to any of the ingredients.

Warnings and Precautions:

• To make sure this is the right treatment for you, before you start using the eye drops it is important that your doctor or pharmacist knows:
• If you wear soft contact lenses.
• If you have ever had an allergic reaction to a preservative in eye drops.

Possible side effects:

• Stop using the product and seek immediate medical attention if you develop throat tightness or swelling of the eyes, face, lips or tongue, feel faint, or have difficulty breathing.
• Stop using the product if you develop hives or itching of the face or body.

Other medicines and Sodium hyaluronate:

• Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking or have recently taken any other medicines, including medicines obtained without any prescription.

How to use Sodium hyaluronate:

• Wash your hands well before you use the drops.
• Remove the cap from the bottle (or the tip of the unit if you are using a single-use unit).
• Tilt your head back a little and pull the lower lid of your eye downwards to form a pocket.
• Hold the bottle (or single-use unit) upside down near to your eye.
• Try not to touch your eye as you do this.
• Apply enough pressure to release one drop into your eye. Only use a second drop if the first drop missed going into your eye.
• Close your eye for a minute or two, and press gently on the side of your nose where the corner of your eye meets your nose.
• This helps to stop the drop from draining away and keeps it in your eye.
• Repeat the process in your other eye if you have been told to use the drops in both eyes.
• Replace the cap (or if you are using a single-use dose unit, throw the used unit away).

How to store Sodium hyaluronate:

• Keep all medicines out of the reach and sight of children.
• Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct heat and light.
• Always check the expiry date on the label, and for how long you can use the drops once the container has been opened.
• Many eye drops only keep for four weeks once the container has been opened, in order to reduce the risk of eye infections
