FIDIAL TEARS FOR OPHTHALMIC USE Eye Drops

What is FIDIAL TEARS FOR OPHTHALMIC USE

FIDIAL Tears is an ophthalmic solution formulated with sodium hyaluronate as the active ingredient. It is designed to provide relief for dry eyes by mimicking natural tears and restoring moisture to the ocular surface. The product comes in a 5ml dropper bottle, making it convenient for regular application.

Sodium hyaluronate is a naturally occurring glycosaminoglycan with excellent viscoelastic and moisture-retaining properties. It is widely used in eye care products due to its ability to retain water, lubricate the eyes, and promote healing of damaged ocular tissues.

FIDIAL Tears is indicated for individuals experiencing dry eye syndrome, eye irritation, or discomfort caused by environmental factors such as wind, dust, or prolonged screen time. It can also be used as a supportive treatment for patients undergoing ophthalmic surgery or contact lens wearers who experience dryness.

How to use FIDIAL TEARS FOR OPHTHALMIC USE

Proper use of FIDIAL Tears is essential for effective relief and to avoid contamination:

• Wash your hands thoroughly before using the eye drops.
• Shake the bottle gently if necessary.
• Tilt your head back slightly and pull down the lower eyelid to create a small pocket.
• Hold the dropper above the eye and instill one drop into the affected eye(s). Avoid touching the dropper tip to the eye or any surface to prevent contamination.
• Close your eyes gently for 1 to 2 minutes without blinking excessively to allow the drops to spread evenly.
• If needed, wait 5 minutes before applying other eye medications.
• Repeat the process for the other eye if both are affected.

The frequency of use depends on the severity of symptoms and the prescribing doctor’s instructions but typically ranges from 1 to 4 drops per day. Contact lens wearers should remove lenses before application and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them.

Mode of Action FIDIAL TEARS FOR OPHTHALMIC USE

The key active component in FIDIAL Tears is sodium hyaluronate, a naturally occurring polysaccharide with unique physicochemical properties that make it ideal for ocular lubrication.

Sodium hyaluronate acts by:

• Retaining moisture: It has a high capacity to bind water molecules, maintaining hydration of the corneal and conjunctival surfaces.
• Providing viscoelasticity: It forms a protective, lubricating layer over the ocular surface, reducing friction during blinking.
• Promoting healing: By stabilizing the tear film and facilitating cell migration, it aids in the repair of microabrasions and epithelial damage.
• Reducing inflammation: Sodium hyaluronate can help modulate inflammatory responses on the ocular surface, alleviating discomfort.

These actions collectively restore the natural tear film balance, relieve dryness and irritation, and improve overall ocular comfort.

FIDIAL TEARS FOR OPHTHALMIC USE Interactions FIDIAL TEARS FOR OPHTHALMIC USE

FIDIAL Tears, containing sodium hyaluronate, has minimal systemic absorption, which means it generally exhibits a very low potential for drug interactions.

• Other eye medications: It is usually safe to use alongside other ophthalmic drugs, such as anti-glaucoma drops or antibiotics. However, to prevent dilution or washout, a 5-minute interval between applications is recommended.
• Contact lenses: While sodium hyaluronate can be soothing for contact lens users, it is advised to remove lenses prior to administration and wait 15 minutes before reinsertion to avoid contamination or reduced effectiveness.

Always inform your healthcare provider about all medications you are using to ensure compatibility.

Dosage of FIDIAL TEARS FOR OPHTHALMIC USE

The dosage of FIDIAL Tears depends on the severity of symptoms and individual patient needs:

• Typical dosing ranges from 1 to 4 drops per affected eye per day.
• In mild cases of dryness or irritation, 1 to 2 drops daily may suffice.
• For moderate to severe dry eye or following ophthalmic procedures, more frequent instillation (up to every 1-2 hours) might be necessary.
• Follow the prescribing healthcare professional’s instructions carefully.

Do not exceed the recommended dosage, and avoid using the product if the solution changes color or consistency. If symptoms persist or worsen despite treatment, consult your doctor.

Possible side effects of FIDIAL TEARS FOR OPHTHALMIC USE

FIDIAL Tears is generally well tolerated due to its biocompatible and natural ingredient profile. However, some users may experience mild side effects:

• Temporary burning or stinging sensation immediately after instillation.
• Mild eye redness or irritation.
• Blurred vision immediately after application (usually transient).

Rarely, allergic reactions such as itching, swelling, or rash around the eyes may occur. In case of severe discomfort, swelling, or signs of infection, discontinue use and seek medical advice promptly.

• Known hypersensitivity or allergy to sodium hyaluronate or any other component of the formulation.
• Presence of active eye infections unless prescribed as adjunctive therapy.

Use caution in patients with a history of ocular surface diseases or severe dry eye syndrome. Consult a healthcare professional before use during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

Storage of FIDIAL TEARS FOR OPHTHALMIC USE

Proper storage of FIDIAL Tears is essential to maintain its sterility and effectiveness:

• Store the bottle tightly closed at room temperature, ideally between 15°C and 25°C (59°F to 77°F).
• Protect from direct sunlight and excessive heat.
