Quick Tips
Vasicon Eye Drop should usually be used about four times a day (in the morning and the evening). To avoid contamination, do not touch the dropper tip or let it touch your eye or any other surface. After applying the Vasicon Eye Drop, close your eyes and place one finger at the corner of your eye. Apply gentle pressure for 1 to 2 minutes before opening your eyes. This will prevent the medication from draining out. Try not to blink or rub your eyes. If you normally wear contact lenses, please wear your spectacles instead until your doctor advises you that it is suitable for you to wear lenses again.
