Precautions

This medication is an eye drop made from sodium hyaluronate, intended for use in the eyes. Patients who are allergic to any of the components or protein-based medications should not use this product. During use, you may experience itching of the eyelids, a sensation of eye irritation, conjunctivitis, redness, symptoms of corneal problems, or a feeling of foreign body in the eye. Rarely, discharge or eye pain may occur, so if these symptoms appear, discontinue use immediately and consult a physician. Inflammation or dermatitis of the eyelids may also occur, so if such symptoms develop, stop using the medication and seek appropriate treatment. When used in conjunction with steroid medications, dry eye treatments, antibiotics, glaucoma medications, antihistamines, cataract treatments, or non-steroidal anti-inflammatory analgesics, adverse reactions may be more common, so caution is advised. It is recommended not to use this medication simultaneously with other eye medications; if they must be used together, administer the other medication and wait about 30 minutes before using this product. This medication is intended only for use in the eyes and should not be applied to other areas. Be careful not to let the tip of the bottle touch the eyelids or eyelashes, as this may contaminate the medication. For single-use products, the first 1-2 drops should be discarded and not administered to the eye. After opening, use immediately, and dispose of any remaining solution. It is recommended not to share this medication with others, and any unused solution or container should be discarded immediately after use. When storing, keep out of reach of children and store in a cool place away from direct sunlight. Also, transferring the medication to another container may lead to misuse and deterioration of quality, so it should be stored in its original container.
