Eco Tears Ointment 10 mL

Eco Tears Ointment 10 mL is an eye ointment made with carboxymethylcellulose, a lubricating agent used to relieve dry, irritated eyes. Each tube contains 10 mL of the ointment form, which coats the eye surface longer than drops and helps reduce dryness, burning, and scratchy discomfort. It belongs to the artificial tears/lubricating eye care group and is used when the eyes need moisture and protection from irritation.

How it works: Carboxymethylcellulose works by forming a soothing, moisture-retaining layer over the eye surface. In an ointment, this layer lasts longer and helps protect the eye from drying out while the surface heals and feels less irritated.

Eco Tears Ointment 10 mL is the ointment presentation, so it stays on the eye longer and may feel thicker or blur vision for a short time after use. That makes Eco Tears Ointment 10 mL a good choice for people who need longer-lasting nighttime relief or who have more persistent dryness than a simple drop may cover.

• Dry eye relief
• Burning or stinging from dryness
• Scratchy or gritty eye discomfort
• Eye irritation from reduced tears
• Nighttime eye lubrication

• Wash your hands before using Eco Tears Ointment 10 mL.
• Tilt your head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and apply a small ribbon of ointment inside the eyelid pouch.
• Close the eye gently for 1 to 2 minutes without rubbing it.
• Use it exactly as your doctor or eye care professional directs; ointments are often used at bedtime because they can blur vision.
• If you also use eye drops, separate them by at least 5 to 10 minutes and use the ointment last unless told otherwise.
• Do not let the tube tip touch your eye, fingers, or any surface.

Eco Tears Ointment 10 mL provides 10 mL of ointment per tube, and the amount used each time is usually a small ribbon placed in the lower eyelid. How often it is used can vary from several times a day to bedtime-only use, depending on how dry or irritated the eyes are. There is no fixed maximum daily dose from the tube size alone; your doctor decides the schedule that is safest and most effective for your eyes.

Do not change your dose or stop the medicine without speaking to your doctor.

Common side effects of Carboxymethylcellulose may include:

• Temporary blurred vision after application, which may be more noticeable with the ointment form
• Mild eye burning or stinging
• Sticky or greasy feeling in the eye
• Watery eyes
• Mild eye redness
• Temporary eyelid discomfort

• Do not use Eco Tears Ointment 10 mL if you are allergic to carboxymethylcellulose or any ingredient in the ointment.
• Because this is an ointment, it can blur vision temporarily; do not drive or use machinery until your vision clears.
• Contact lens wearers should ask a clinician before use, since the ointment may coat or dirty lenses.
• If eye pain, redness, or irritation gets worse instead of better, stop use and seek medical advice.
• Do not share the tube with anyone else to avoid spreading eye infection.
• If you use other eye medicines, keep dosing separated so the ointment does not block absorption of drops or gels.
• Use extra caution if you have an eye infection, eye injury, or recent eye surgery unless your doctor specifically told you to use it.

• Other eye drops, gels, or ointments may interact by changing how well each product works; separate applications as directed.
• Contact lenses can interact with the ointment by trapping residue on the lens surface.
• Other medicated eye products may need to be timed apart to avoid reduced effect.
• If you are using prescription eye medicines, tell your clinician before starting Eco Tears Ointment 10 mL.

Store Eco Tears Ointment 10 mL at room temperature, keep the tube tightly closed, and protect it from contamination by not touching the tip to any surface.
