Wash your hands first before applying Softdrops Eye Drop. To avoid contamination, do not touch the dropper tip or let it touch your eye or any other surface.

Wait for at least 5-10 minutes before delivering the next medication in the same eye to avoid dilution of this medicine.
Stinging sensation may occur for 1-2 minutes. Notify your doctor if it persists for longer.
Make sure to use it within 4 weeks of opening the bottle.
