Eyefem Opth Ointment

Eyefem Opth Ointment, made by Kobec Health Sciences, is a mild steroid eye drop. Its active ingredient is Fluorometholone, and it is used for eye inflammation and allergic eye conditions. Pack size: 5g.

Uses of Eyefem Opth Ointment

Eyefem Opth Ointment eye drops are used to reduce inflammation affecting the front of the eye, such as allergic and other non-infectious inflammation of the conjunctiva, cornea and eyelids, and inflammation after eye surgery. They ease redness, swelling, itching and discomfort. As a milder steroid, they are less likely than some stronger eye steroids to raise eye pressure, but they still need medical supervision.

How Eyefem Opth Ointment works

Fluorometholone is a corticosteroid. It acts inside the cells of the eye to reduce the release of chemicals that cause inflammation, calming redness, swelling and itching. It does not treat infection and can make some eye infections worse.

Possible side effects

Most people use Eyefem Opth Ointment without trouble, but some notice:

• Brief stinging or burning
• Temporary blurred vision
• Eye irritation or redness
• Unusual taste

See an eye doctor promptly for eye pain, worsening vision, halos around lights, or a discharge or sore on the eye that could signal infection.

Precautions and warnings

• Use it only as prescribed and for as long as advised; long use can raise eye pressure and cause cataracts, so your eye pressure may be checked.
• Do not use it for an undiagnosed red eye, especially if a viral, fungal or herpes infection is possible.
• Remove soft contact lenses before use and wait at least fifteen minutes before putting them back in.
• Do not let the dropper tip touch the eye, and wait until your vision clears before driving.
• If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, use it only on your doctor’s advice.

Storage

Store below 30°C and keep the cap tightly closed. For external use only; avoid contact with the eyes unless the product is made for eye use. Keep all medicines out of the reach of children.
