What is Dry Eyes?
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 and irritated. It can also be used in patients who suffer from sore eyes because their tear film is unstable.

You should take care not to touch the end of the dropper nozzle onto your eyes, fingers or any other surface. Remember to replace the cap after use. The recommended dose is to place one drop of gel in the corner of the eye, nearest the nose, 3 to 4 times each day and approximately 30 minutes before going to bed.
Children and adolescents aged to 18 years
The safety and efficacy of GelTears in children and adolescents at the posology recommended in adults has been established by clinical experience, but no clinical trial data are available.
The amount of gel used should be enough to cover the eye properly.
Follow these instructions carefully.
1. Wash hands thoroughly.
2. Twist off the cap.
3. Look upwards and gently pull down the lower eyelid.
4. Hold the GelTears tube just above your eye and gently squeeze until some gel falls into the gap between your eyeball and lower eyelid.
5. Release the lower eyelid, and move your eye while open to ensure the gel covers the eye completely.
6. Repeat the process in the other eye if necessary.
If you use more GelTears than you should it is very unlikely that you will suffer an overdose, but if you suddenly feel unwell after using the gel, tell your doctor or eye specialist.
If you forget to use your medicine, use it as soon as you remember and then continue as before.

Other medicines and GelTears
If GelTears is used at the same time with other eye drops/eye ointments, there should be an application time interval of approximately 15 minutes between use of such other medications and GelTears should always be the last medication to be applied.
Tell your doctor or pharmacist if you are taking, have recently or might take any other medicines.
Warnings and Precautions
Your vision may become blurred if too much gel is added at one time, or if you use your medicine more often than is required. This effect can last for up to an hour. If you are affected you may be able to speed up recovery of normal vision by blinking vigorously for a few seconds. If this does not work, try gently rubbing the eyelid.
This should help the gel to collect in the conjunctival sac beneath the eye where it will no longer interfere with your vision.
Children and adolescents aged to 18 years:
The safety and efficacy of GelTears in children and adolescents at the posology recommended in adults has been established by clinical experience, but no clinical trial data are available.
Pregnancy, breast-feeding and fertility
Do not use GelTears if you are pregnant, may be pregnant, or are breastfeeding.
Ask your doctor or pharmacist for advice.
Contact lenses
Take special care with GelTears if you wear contact lenses. Contact lenses should be removed during treatment with GelTears. And then wait for 15 minutes after application before putting them back in.
Benzalkonium chloride is used as a preservative in GelTears, and is known to be absorbed by soft contact lenses. Over time benzalkonium chloride can collect in soft contact lenses, and therefore may cause irritation, or discolour the lenses. Therefore use of Geltears while using soft contact lenses is not recommended. GelTears can, however, be used with daily disposable lenses because a new pair is used each day.
Driving and using machines
As with all eye preparations, you may have blurred vision for a little while after putting the gel in. Wait until your vision is clear before driving or using machines.
