Prescription Required
Product introduction
SH-Tear Eye Drop is a lubricant. It is used in the treatment of dry eyes. It moistens the eyes and provides relief from discomfort and temporary burning. It also helps in treating corneal burns by forming a soothing layer that reduces irritation and protects the damaged cornea.
SH-Tear Eye Drop is usually instilled whenever needed. Take the dosage as advised by your doctor. Wait for at least 5-10 minutes before delivering any other medication in the same eye to avoid dilution. Do not use a bottle if the seal is broken before you open it, or if the solution changes color, or becomes cloudy.
Common side effects of SH-Tear Eye Drop include blurred vision, redness, irritation in the eye, sensitivity to light, and watery eyes. Do not avoid notifying your doctor if any of these side effects persist or worsen.
Always wash your hands and do not touch the end of the dropper, as this could infect your eye. It is generally safe to use SH-Tear Eye Drop with no common side effects. Let your doctor know if you experience any mild burning or irritation of your eyes.
Do not drive, use machinery, or do any activity that requires clear vision until you are sure you can do it safely. Consult your doctor if your condition does not improve or if the side effects bother you. People with narrow-angle glaucoma should not use this medicine.
