Always follow your doctor's exact instructions regarding how and when to apply Dorpath 2% Eye Drops 5 ml. To use the eye drops safely and effectively, follow these steps:

• Wash your hands thoroughly with soap and water before handling the bottle.
• Tilt your head back slightly and pull down your lower eyelid with your finger to create a small pocket.
• Hold the bottle upside down near your eye, ensuring the dropper tip does not touch your eye, eyelid, hands, or any other surface.
• Gently squeeze the bottle to release a single drop into the pocket of your lower eyelid.
• Close your eye gently. Do not blink or rub your eye.
• Press your finger firmly against the inner corner of your closed eye (near your nose) for 1 to 2 minutes to prevent the medicine from draining into your throat.
• If you use other eye drops, wait at least 10 minutes after applying Dorpath 2% Eye Drops 5 ml before using them.
   

• Engage in regular, moderate exercise, such as walking, which can help lower eye pressure. Avoid head-down yoga positions or heavy weightlifting, as these can temporarily increase pressure in the head and eyes.
• Limit your consumption of caffeinated beverages, as drinking high amounts of caffeine within a short period can raise eye pressure.
• Drink fluids in moderation throughout the day. Drinking large amounts of liquid all at once can cause a temporary rise in eye pressure.
• Protect your eyes from injury by wearing protective safety glasses during sports, home repairs, or gardening.

• Always inspect the solution before use; do not use Dorpath 2% Eye Drops 5 ml if the liquid is cloudy, discoloured, or contains visible particles.
• Remove your contact lenses before applying Dorpath 2% Eye Drops 5 ml and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them, as the preservative in the drops can be absorbed by and discolour soft lenses.
• Never let the dropper tip touch your eye, fingers, or any other surface, as this can introduce harmful bacteria and lead to serious eye infections.
• If you develop an eye infection, experience an eye injury, or undergo eye surgery, contact your doctor immediately to determine if you should continue using your current bottle of Dorpath 2% Eye Drops 5 ml.
• Avoid driving, using tools, or operating machinery immediately after applying the drops, as your vision may be temporarily blurred.
