About Eyemist Gel

Eyemist Gel is an ophthalmic medication used to treat dry eyes. Dry eye is a condition in which the eyes do not produce enough tears or the tears evaporate too quickly, resulting in irritation, discomfort, and blurred vision.

Eyemist Gel contains Hydroxypropyl methylcellulose, an eye lubricant. It works by forming a transparent, moisturising film on the cornea, providing relief from dryness and irritation caused by reduced tear production.

Some people may experience temporary blurred vision, foreign body sensation, eye pain, redness, or irritation. These side effects usually go away on their own, but if they persist or worsen, consult your doctor.

Eyemist Gel should not be used if you are allergic to any of its ingredients or have a history of severe eye conditions or infections, unless directed by your doctor. Temporary blurred vision may occur after use, so make sure your vision is clear before driving or operating machinery.
