Quick tips

Your doctor has prescribed M-Glycol Eye Drop to reduce dryness in the eyes.
To avoid contamination, do not touch the dropper tip or let it touch your eye or any other surface.
Apply pressure on the corner of the eye (close to the nose) for about 1 minute, immediately after instilling the medication. This will prevent the medication from draining out. Try not to blink or rub your eye.
Make sure to use it within 4 weeks of opening the bottle.
Try to keep your environment less dry by reducing excessive use of room heaters or using a humidifier.
Wear glasses or sunglasses to protect your eyes from wind and dust when out in a hot, dry climate.
Rest your eyes by taking regular breaks if you spend long periods in front of a screen.
