When you experience symptoms of dry eye, or after eye surgery or an eye injury your doctor may recommend using eye drops (artificial tears) or an eye ointment.
Why has your doctor recommended using OCUNOX®?
OCUNOX® eye ointment:
- Improves the tear film and protects the surface of the eye.
- Is preservative and phosphate free and is usually well tolerated.
- Enables optimal moisturisation overnight.
How does OCUNOX® work?
OCUNOX® improves the tear film and protects the surface of the eye. Due to its particularly smooth texture, OCUNOX® gently moisturizes your eyes, stabilizes the tear film and prevents tears from evaporating while you sleep. OCUNOX® contains Vitamin A, a natural component of the tear film, that supports tolerance and helps ensure that the ointment mixes well with available tears to relieve the burning sensation of dry or tired eyes. OCUNOX® helps the eyelids slide easily over the surface of the cornea and conjunctiva, keeping the eyelids smooth and preventing crusting around the eye.
How often and how long can you use OCUNOX®?
The frequency of use depends on your individual discomfort and habits. OCUNOX® can be used in addition to lubricating eye drops. Ideally combine with our preservative-free, phosphate-free, 300-drop HYLO® / HYLO®Gel. Usually apply once a day before bedtime. If you feel the need to use OCUNOX® more often, talk to your doctor. The duration of treatment is not limited.
When should I not use OCUNOX®?
- OCUNOX® should not be used if you are sensitive to any of the ingredients.
- OCUNOX® is preservative and phosphate free and is usually well tolerated.
- OCUNOX® must not be used while wearing contact lenses.
