Who it is for

Not suitable for: This is a wash for cleansing and soothing the eye, not a treatment for an eye infection or injury. Do not use it if you have injured your eye or have something stuck in it, and see a doctor or optometrist instead if you have eye pain, a sudden change in your vision, or discharge from the eye. Do not use it if you are allergic to any of the ingredients, and stop using it and speak to a pharmacist if irritation continues. Read the contact lens instructions on the carton before use.
How to use
- Read the instructions on the carton before use.
- Wash and dry your hands, and check that the bottle seal is intact.
- Rinse the eye bath with the eye wash, then fill it until it is about a third full.
- Tilt your head slightly forward, hold the eye bath by its base and place it over your eye.
- Slowly raise your head with your eye open so the wash flows freely over it, and gently rock your head from side to side for at least 30 seconds.
- Discard any wash left in the eye bath and repeat for the other eye. If more than one person uses the eye bath, sterilise it by boiling it in water.
