Avoid touching  the dropper tip or let it touch your eye or any other surface. Remove any contact lenses prior to use of this medication. After use of this medication be sure to allow 15-30 mins prior to reinserting your contact lens. To use this medication: Tilt your head back, look upward and pull down the lower eyelid to make a pouch. Hold the dropper directly over your eye and insert one drop, usually three times daily, or as directed by your doctor. 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. Try not to blink and avoid rubbing your eyes. This will prevent the medication from draining out. Repeat these steps for your other eye if so directed by your doctor. Do not rinse the dropper. Replace the dropper cap after each use. If you are using another kind of eye medication (e.g., drops or ointments), wait at least 5 minutes before applying the other medications. Use eye drops before eye ointments to allow the eye drops to enter the eye. Keep using this medication even if you feel well. Use this medication regularly in order to get the most benefit from it. Remember to use it at the same time each day. Do not stop using this medication without speaking to your Primary Care Physician. Speak to your eye doctor should your condition worsen while using this medication.
