Lumecare Carmellose 0.5% Preservative Free Eye Drops - 30 Unit Dose

Lumecare Carmellose 0.5% Preservative-Free Eye Drops are sterile, single-use lubricating drops designed to relieve the symptoms of dry eye, including soreness, burning, irritation, redness and a gritty/foreign-body sensation. Carmellose sodium (carboxymethylcellulose) works like artificial tears, helping the solution cling to the surface of the eye to improve comfort when natural tear film is reduced or evaporates too quickly.

Preservative-free unit doses are a good option for people who prefer to avoid preservatives or who use drops regularly. Each vial is intended for single use to help maintain hygiene.

Suitable for contact lens wearers and can be placed directly onto lenses to help make insertion more comfortable.

Pack size: 30 unit doses (0.4ml each).

Always use as directed on the label/leaflet or by your pharmacist/optometrist.

Dose:

• Instil 1 drop into the affected eye(s) 2 to 3 times a day, or as required.

How to apply (unit dose):

1. Wash and dry hands.
2. Detach one single-use vial and open it (twist off the top).
3. Tilt your head back and gently pull down the lower eyelid to form a pocket.
4. Apply one drop into the eye. Repeat for the other eye if needed.
5. Blink gently to spread the drop.
6. Discard the vial after use (do not keep for later).
