Ocugesic Eye Drop 5 ml

This medication is used to treat swelling (inflammation) of the eye after cataract surgery.

• • It is also used after another type of eye surgery (corneal refractive surgery) to temporarily relieve pain and sensitivity of the eye to light.

• • Diclofenac belongs to a class of drugs known as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).

How To Use:

• • Apply this medication to the affected eye as directed by your doctor.

• • The dosage and duration of treatment is based on your medical condition and response to treatment.

• • Do not wear contact lenses while you are using this medicine unless your doctor approves of it.

• • Sterilize contact lenses according to the manufacturer’s directions, and check with your doctor before you begin using them again.

• • To apply eye drops, wash your hands first.

• • Do not touch the dropper tip or let it touch your eye or any other surface to avoid contamination.

• • Tilt your head back, look upward, and pull down the lower eyelid to make a pouch.

• • Hold the dropper directly over your eye and place 1 drop into the pouch.

• • Look downward and gently close your eyes for 1 to 2 minutes.

• • Place one finger at the corner of your eye (near the nose) and apply gentle pressure.

• • This will prevent the medication from draining out.

• • Try not to blink and do not rub your eye. Repeat these steps if your dose is for more than 1 drop.

• • If you are using single-dose units, discard the unit and any remaining solution after one use.

• • If you are using another kind of eye medication (for example, other drops or ointments), wait for at least 5 to 10 minutes before applying other medications.

• • Use eye drops before eye ointments to allow the drops to enter the eye.

Warnings And Precautions:

• • This medication is intended for short-term use only.

• • Do not use this medication more often or for longer than prescribed because doing so may increase your risk of serious side effects.

• • Do not use this product if it becomes contaminated (for example, drops turn cloudy or a dark color).

• • The use of contaminated eye medication can cause infection, serious damage to the eye, and loss of vision. Contact your doctor or pharmacist for more information.

• • Tell your doctor if your symptoms persist or if they worsen.
