Precautions

This medication is an eye drop containing sodium hyaluronate, which is used to provide moisture and protection to the eyes. Do not use this medication if you are allergic to protein-based drugs or have hypersensitivity to any of its ingredients. While using, symptoms such as eyelid itching, eye irritation, redness, conjunctivitis, corneal disorders, and foreign body sensation may occur, and if such symptoms appear, use should be discontinued immediately, and a doctor should be consulted. Occasionally, allergic reactions such as eye discharge, eye pain, blepharitis, and dermatitis may occur, so caution is necessary. When using with other eye drops, adverse reactions may occur more frequently, so if other eye drops need to be used, they should be administered at least 30 minutes apart. Care should be taken to avoid touching the tip of the container to the eyelids or eyelashes when instilling, and for single-use products, the first 1-2 drops should be discarded before use. After opening, it should be used immediately, and any remaining solution or container should be discarded; it is important not to share with others. This medication should be used for ocular application only, stored out of reach of children, kept away from direct sunlight, and stored in a cool place. Additionally, to prevent misuse and to maintain the quality of the medication, it should not be transferred to another container.
