How to use Hylo-Comod eye drops?
Ensure the packaging is intact before use and close the cap tightly after taking your dose (if using a single-use unit like ampoules, discard the unit after use).
Tilt your head back slightly and look upwards.
Pull your lower eyelid down.
With the other hand, turn the eye drop bottle upside down near your eye. Try not to touch your eye while doing this.
Apply enough pressure to release one drop (or the contents of the ampoule) into your eye.
Ensure the medication has entered your eye.
Close your eye for a minute or two and press gently on the side of your nose; this is an important tip to prevent the loss of eye drops and keep the medication in place.
The recommended dose is one or two drops (or ampoules) in the affected eye(s) as needed.
A higher dose may be prescribed in cases of severe dryness.
Dosages may be adjusted under special circumstances.
If you forget a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it is almost time for the next dose.
Do not take a double dose to make up for a forgotten one.
