1. WHAT VIDISIC PRESERVATIVE FREE IS AND WHAT IT IS USED FOR
Your gel contains the active ingredient carbomer, which acts as a
lubricant to treat
symptoms of dry eye. It is a soothing gel that is used as an
artificial tear when the eyes
are lacking in tears.
Your eyes will normally produce just enough natural tears to allow
them to move easily
and comfortably. If your eyes do not produce enough tears they can
become dry, red and
painful.
Your gel keeps the surface of the eye lubricated when production of
tears is less than
normal, and has a refreshing, cooling action. The carbomer in this gel
holds moisture and
releases this onto the surface of the eye to help relieve the feeling
of dryness.
This gel can be used by children, adults and the elderly.
2. WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW BEFORE YOU USE VIDISIC PRESERVATIVE FREE
