Quick tips

Ketrodex Eye Drop

  • Ketrodex Eye Drop is prescribed for the treatment of allergic conjunctivitis and eye pain after any eye surgery.
  • Ketrodex Eye Drop should usually be used twice a day (in the morning and the evening). If your symptoms are particularly severe, your doctor may suggest you use them up to four times a day.
  • Apply pressure on the corner of the eye (close to the nose) for about 1 minute, immediately after putting the medication. This will prevent the medication from draining out. Try not to blink or rub your eye.
  • Do not wear contact lenses until your infection clears up or your eyes heal completely after surgery.
  • Your eyes can become more sensitive to sunlight than usual post eye infections or surgery. Wearing sunglasses may help to prevent this.
  • Along with using Ketrodex Eye Drop, give a warm compress to your eyes to get relief from itching and burning sensation.
