• Wash your hands before using eye medication.
• To apply the eye drops: Tilt your head back slightly and pull down your lower eyelid to create a small pocket. Hold the dropper above the eye and squeeze a drop into this pocket. Close your eyes for 1 or 2 minutes.
• Wait at least 10 minutes before using any other eye drops your doctor has prescribed.
