Finbrom Eye Drop

Prescription Required

Product introduction

Finbrom Eye Drop is a pain-relieving medicine. It is used to treat postoperative eye pain and inflammation in patients who have undergone cataract surgery.

Always wash your hands before using Finbrom Eye Drop. Use only the number of drops that your doctor has prescribed and wait for about five minutes between each drop. If you wear contact lenses, remove them before using the drops and wait for at least 15 minutes before putting them back in. You should not touch the tip of the dropper or bottle. This may lead to infection.

Use of the medicine may cause blurred vision, increased sensitivity to light, change in color vision, decreased vision, eye pain, sore eyes, teary eye, and headache. These are usually temporary and resolve with time. However, if they persist or get worse, you should let your doctor know. Your doctor may be able to suggest ways of preventing or reducing the symptoms.

Before using this medicine, you should tell your doctor about all the other medicines you are taking. You should also tell your doctor if you have any other medical conditions or disorders. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should consult with their doctors before using the medicine.

FAQs

What is the right way to use Finbrom Eye Drop?

Always wash your hands before (and after) using Finbrom Eye Drop. This prevents you from passing the infection from one eye to the other. Remove the cap just before using your medicine and replace it as soon as you have finished. Avoid touching the nozzle of the bottle with your fingers. Tilt your head back and gently pull down your lower eyelid with a clean finger. Hold the bottle over the eye and allow a single drop to fall into the space between your lower lid and your eye. Close your eye and gently press your finger over the inside corner of your eye (over the eyelid) for about a minute. This helps prevent the drop from draining out of the eye. Repeat in your other eye if your doctor has told you to do this.

How often can I use Finbrom Eye Drop?

Instill one drop into the affected eye(s) once daily beginning 1 day prior to surgery, continued on the day of surgery, and through the first 14 days post-surgery. However, follow your doctor's instructions regarding dosage since it may vary from patient to patient.

When should I seek a doctor’s advice?

You should contact your doctor immediately if you develop abnormal sensations in the eye, eye irritation (including burning/stinging), eye pain, eye allergy, eye redness, headache, and iritis (inflammation of the colored part of your eye).

Can I use any other eye drop along with Finbrom Eye Drop?

Always consult your doctor before using any other eye drops along with Finbrom Eye Drop. It is advisable to give a gap of atleast 5 minutes between the two medications.

Can I use any other topical pain relieving medicine while using Finbrom Eye Drop?

Use of any other topical pain relieving medicine with Finbrom Eye Drop may slow or delay healing of your operated eye. Consult your doctor in case of any doubts.
