Clean and remove discharge from the eyelid and eyelashes with cotton swab, starting from the inner corner of the eye.
Avoid touching the tip of the dropper to your eye or anything else.
Tilt head back. Using the index finger of the non-dominant hand, gently pull down the lower eyelid to form a “pocket” in the eye.
While looking up, hold the eyedropper bottle above the eye with your dominant hand, supporting the heel of your hand on the non-dominant hand, and squeeze the bottle to drop the eye drop into your eyes. Repeat if unsure whether eye drops entered your eye.
If also using eye ointment, wait 5 minutes before after instilling eye drops. Squeeze the ointment into the lower eyelid from the inner corner of the eye to the outer. Take care not to touch your eyelash or eyelid with the eye dropper or ointment tube.
Close your eyes for 5-10 seconds after applying eye drops or eye ointment to allow the drug to coat the eye. Gently press the inner corner of the eye to close the tear duct.
Replace and tighten the cap on the dropper bottle. Do not wipe or wash to dropper tip.
