Opthoblis Gel 5 gm

Your doctor may prescribe this medicine to help manage the following conditions:

• Dry eye syndrome: Opthoblis Gel 5 gm helps lubricate the eyes, stabilise the tear film, and relieve dryness caused by inadequate tear production or excessive tear evaporation.
• Corneal epithelial defects: It supports the healing of minor corneal abrasions, superficial injuries, and non-infectious damage to the outer surface of the eye.
• Eye irritation: This medicine provides relief from burning, stinging, grittiness, and discomfort caused by environmental factors such as wind, dust, smoke, air conditioning, or prolonged screen use.
• Post-operative eye care: It helps maintain adequate lubrication and supports corneal surface healing following certain eye surgeries or ophthalmic procedures.
   

When used as suggested, Opthoblis Gel 5 gm offers several important benefits for maintaining eye surface health.

• Provides long-lasting lubrication: It helps keep the surface of the eye moist, reducing dryness, irritation, and the sensation of grittiness.
• Supports corneal healing: By promoting the repair of damaged corneal epithelial cells, this medicine helps speed the recovery of minor surface injuries and surgical wounds.
• Stabilises the natural tear film: It helps maintain a healthy tear film, reducing excessive tear evaporation and providing longer-lasting comfort throughout the day.
• Protects the ocular surface: By forming a protective lubricating layer over the cornea, this medicine helps minimise friction during blinking and protects the eyes from environmental irritants.
   

• Follow your doctor’s instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication to ensure safe and effective use.
• Tilt your head back and gently pull your lower eyelid downward and outward. Gently squeeze the dropper to instill the eye drops into your eyes. Blink your eyes a few times to help spread the medication.
• Do not touch the tip of the dropper to prevent contamination.

• Practice the 20-20-20 rule: If you work on computer screens, look away every 20 minutes at an object 20 feet away for at least 20 seconds to reduce eye strain.
• Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day to support the natural production of tears and keep your eyes moist from within.
• Protect your eyes outdoors: Wear wrap-around sunglasses to protect your eyes from drying winds, dust, and direct sunlight.
• Optimise your indoor environment: Use a humidifier to add moisture to dry indoor air, and avoid sitting directly in front of fans, heaters, or air conditioning vents.
• Limit screen brightness: Adjust your digital device settings to reduce blue light and glare, which can dry out and irritate your eyes.
   

• Inspect the bottle before use: Do not use the eye drops if the safety seal is broken or if the solution appears cloudy, discoloured, or contains visible particles.
• Keep the dropper tip sterile: Avoid touching the dropper tip to your eye, eyelids, fingers, or any surface to prevent contamination and reduce the risk of eye infection.
• Remove contact lenses before application: If you wear contact lenses, remove them before instilling the drops and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them, unless your doctor advises otherwise.
• Separate different eye medications: If you are using more than one eye drop, wait at least 5 to 10 minutes between each medicine. If using an eye ointment, apply it after all eye drops.
• Avoid driving until vision clears: Temporary blurred vision may occur immediately after application. Wait until your vision becomes clear before driving or operating machinery.
