Quick tips

  • Your doctor has prescribed Xiclone 0.1% Eye Capsule to relieve inflammation (redness and swelling) in dry eye disease.
  • Apply pressure on the corner of the eye (close to the nose) for about 1 minute, immediately after instilling the drop so that the medicine does not drain away from the eye.
  • When applying multiple eye medications, wait for at least 5-10 minutes before delivering the next medication in the same eye to avoid dilution.
  • Take care to prevent contact of eye dispenser with eye, eyelid, eyelashes, or finger to avoid infection.
  • You may experience a stinging sensation for 1-2 mins after instilling Xiclone 0.1% Eye Capsule. Notify your doctor if it persists for longer.
