Visiotears helps to lubricate eyes and treat mild to moderate dry eye conditions. Visiotears contains povidone and polyvinyl alcohol. Povidone lubricates and moistens film on the surface of the eye. Polyvinyl alcohol decreases the surface tension of the tears so that they spread more easily over the surface of the eye and don’t break into dry spots. It also has properties similar to the natural mucin (a type of glycoprotein) produced by the conjunctiva, which soothes and lubricates the eye and enhances the stability of the tear film. Visiotears is indicated for the relief from dry eye in cases of Keratoconjunctivitis sicca.

A healthy eye produces enough tears to keep it moist and healthy. However, in patients with Dry Eyes or Keratoconjunctivitis sicca (KCS), either the amount of tear production is reduced or the rate at which the tear evaporates is increased. Visioaid is Schirmer’s test strip (STT) that helps to diagnose KCS. Based on the extent to which the STT strip is moistened by tears, the veterinarian is able to diagnose the severity of KCS and provide suitable treatment. The veterinarian will place the tip of VISIOAID inside the eyelid, closes the eye, and holds the paper for exactly 60 seconds. The distance travelled by the tears on the VISIOAID strip in sixty seconds is recorded and the diagnosis is made.

CYCLOSIM 0.1% Eye Drops contain Cyclosporine A, which is an immunosuppressive drug. These eye drops are primarily used for conditions related to dry eyes and inflammation. Here's a detailed overview of its uses: 🔹 Primary Uses Treatment of Dry Eye Disease (Keratoconjunctivitis Sicca) Cyclosporine A in CYCLOSIM 0.1% is commonly used to treat dry eye disease associated with inflammation. It helps by increasing tear production and reducing the inflammation in the eye, making it useful for those who have chronic dry eye caused by insufficient tear production. Inflammatory Eye Conditions It can help reduce inflammation in the eyes, particularly in conditions where the immune system is involved in causing eye irritation or dry eye symptoms. 🔹 How It Works Cyclosporine A is an immunosuppressive agent that modulates the immune system by inhibiting the production of certain cytokines (especially interleukin-2). In the context of dry eyes, this helps to reduce inflammation in the tear glands and promotes tear production. ⚠️ Common Side Effects Burning or stinging sensation in the eye upon application Redness in the eye Eye discomfort or feeling of a foreign object in the eye Watery eyes Temporary blurred vision (typically resolves shortly after application) 🔹 Usage Tips Frequency: Typically applied twice a day, about 12 hours apart, in each affected eye. Application: Wash your hands thoroughly before using the drops. Tilt your head back and pull down the lower eyelid to form a small pocket. Instill 1 drop into the pocket of the lower eyelid. Close your eye gently and blink several times to help spread the medication. If you use other eye medications, wait at least 5–10 minutes between applications. Contact Lenses: Remove contact lenses before applying the drops and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting. 🔹 Precautions Infections: If you have an active eye infection, this medication may not be appropriate as it could exacerbate it. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult your doctor if you are pregnant or breastfeeding before using Cyclosporine A eye drops. Other Medications: Always inform your doctor if you are using other eye medications or oral medications that may interact with Cyclosporine.

F M N Eye Drops contain Fluorometholone, a corticosteroid used to treat inflammation and other related conditions of the eyes. Here's an overview of its uses: 🔹 Primary Uses Anti-Inflammatory Treatment Fluorometholone is a mild corticosteroid that helps reduce inflammation in the eye. It is often prescribed for conditions like conjunctivitis (inflammation of the conjunctiva), iritis (inflammation of the iris), and uveitis (inflammation of the uvea, the middle layer of the eye). Post-Surgical Inflammation It is commonly used to control inflammation and swelling after eye surgeries, such as cataract surgery or other procedures, to help reduce discomfort and promote healing. Allergic Eye Conditions Fluorometholone may be used for treating allergic reactions that cause eye redness, itching, and swelling, such as in seasonal allergic conjunctivitis or vernal keratoconjunctivitis. Eye Infections (with inflammation) In some cases, it may be used for eye infections that cause inflammation, although it's important to note that it should not be used for infections caused by viruses, fungi, or bacteria unless combined with other appropriate treatments. 🔹 How It Works Fluorometholone is a steroid that works by suppressing the immune response in the eye. It inhibits the production of chemicals called prostaglandins, which are responsible for causing inflammation, swelling, and pain. By reducing inflammation, the drops help relieve symptoms like redness, swelling, and discomfort. ⚠️ Common Side Effects Eye irritation, burning, or stinging upon application Blurred vision (usually temporary) Increased intraocular pressure (IOP) with prolonged use, which may lead to glaucoma or cataract formation Redness or dryness of the eyes Sensitivity to light (photophobia) Watering eyes 🔹 Usage Tips Dosage: Typically, 1-2 drops are applied to the affected eye(s), 2 to 4 times a day, or as prescribed by your doctor. Application Instructions: Wash your hands thoroughly before applying the drops. Tilt your head back and gently pull down the lower eyelid to form a small pocket. Place 1 drop in the pocket, and then gently close your eye and blink a few times to spread the medication evenly across the eye. If using other eye medications, wait 5–10 minutes between each. Contact Lenses: Remove contact lenses before applying the drops and wait 15 minutes before reinserting them. 🔹 Precautions Infections: Avoid using Fluorometholone if you have an active eye infection (especially viral or fungal), as corticosteroids can suppress the immune response and worsen infections. Eye Pressure: Fluorometholone can increase the intraocular pressure (IOP) over time, which may lead to glaucoma. It is important to monitor IOP regularly if used long-term. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Consult your doctor before using this medication if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, as corticosteroids should be used cautiously in these situations. Prolonged Use: Long-term use of corticosteroid eye drops should be under close supervision of a healthcare provider, as it can lead to complications like cataracts or glaucoma.
