• Allergic conjunctivitis (eye allergies): Patarid-OD Eye Drops 5 ml relieves redness, swelling, and intense itching of the eyes caused by allergic reactions.
• Seasonal allergic conjunctivitis: Patarid-OD Eye Drops 5 ml prevents and treats eye symptoms triggered by outdoor allergens like grass, weeds, and tree pollen.

Patarid-OD Eye Drops 5 ml offers rapid, targeted relief directly at the source of your eye discomfort, helping you get back to your daily routine without the distraction of irritated eyes.

• Fast-acting relief: It begins working shortly after application to soothe intense itching and burning.
• Long-lasting comfort: A single dose provides several hours of continuous relief, meaning fewer disruptions to your day.
• Clearer, calmer eyes: By reducing redness and puffiness, it restores a healthy appearance and comfortable feel to your eyes.
• Reduced watering: It controls excessive tearing so you can read, work on screens, or drive without constant wiping.
   

• Follow your doctor's instructions on the dosage and timing of this medication to ensure safety.
• Lie down and tilt your head backwards. Pull your lower eyelid gently with your index finger to form a pocket. Instil the number of drops as advised by the doctor into the pocket of the lower eyelid. Close your eyes for 1-2 minutes.
• Avoid touching the tip of the container to prevent contamination.
• Replace the cap tightly after use.

• Avoid rubbing your eyes: Rubbing irritated eyes can cause mast cells to release more histamines, which worsens itching and inflammation.
• Apply cold compresses: Placing a clean, cool, damp cloth over closed eyes can help naturally soothe swelling and reduce the sensation of itching.
• Wear protective eyewear: Wearing wrap-around sunglasses when outdoors physically blocks pollen, wind, and dust from entering your eyes.
• Remove contact lenses: Avoid wearing contact lenses when your eyes are actively red or irritated, as lenses can trap allergens and worsen dry eyes.
• Manage indoor allergens: Keep windows closed during high pollen counts, vacuum carpets regularly, and use HEPA filters to maintain allergen-free indoor air.
   

• Inspect the solution first: Before each use, check the liquid inside the bottle. Do not use Patarid-OD Eye Drops 5 ml if you see floating particles, cloudiness, or any changes in colour.
• Wait to insert contact lenses: If you wear soft contact lenses, remove them before using these drops. Wait at least 10 minutes after applying Patarid-OD Eye Drops 5 ml before putting your lenses back in, as the preservative can discolour lenses.
• Keep the dropper sterile: Never let the tip of the dropper bottle touch your eye, eyelids, fingers, or any other surface to avoid contaminating the solution with bacteria.
• Avoid driving if vision blurs: Your vision may blur temporarily immediately after putting in the drops. Wait until your eyes clear before driving or operating any machinery.
• Observe the discard window: Throw away any remaining solution 4 weeks after first opening the bottle, as preservatives may no longer prevent bacterial growth after this period.
