Quick Tips
Your doctor has prescribed Duralub EG Eye Gel to reduce dryness in the eyes. Wash your hands first before applying Duralub EG Eye Gel. 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 putting the medication. This will prevent the medication from draining out. Try not to blink or rub your eye. Wait for at least 5-10 minutes before delivering the next medication in the same eye to avoid dilution of this medicine. Stinging sensation may occur for 1-2 minutes. Notify your doctor if it persists for longer. Make sure to use it within 4 weeks of opening the bottle.
