The most common side effects include temporary visual blurriness immediately after application. Other potential side effects can include mild discomfort or eye irritation, though these are not common.

To apply the eye drops, wash your hands first to avoid contamination. Tilt your head back, pull down your lower eyelid to create a small pocket, and drop the medicine into this pocket. Look downward and gently close your eyes for 1 to 2 minutes to allow the drops to spread evenly.

Keep the bottle tightly closed and store at room temperature away from moisture and direct light. Do not freeze the eye drops.
