Lacrimos 0.5 % 2 mL Eye Drop

Lacrimos 0.5 % 2 mL Eye Drop is a lubricating eye drop that contains carboxymethylcellulose 0.5% in each dose. It belongs to the artificial tears class and is used to relieve dry, irritated, burning, or gritty eyes. This Lacrimos 0.5 % 2 mL Eye Drop helps add moisture to the eye surface and may be used when dryness is caused by screen use, wind, contact lenses, aging, or certain medicines. It is a small 2 mL eye drop pack supplied by Lupin, India, in a strip/box of 10.

How it works: Carboxymethylcellulose works by coating the eye surface with a soothing, water-binding layer that helps hold moisture in place. In this eye drop form, it replaces lost tears and reduces friction so the eyes feel less dry and irritated.

Lacrimos 0.5 % 2 mL Eye Drop is the lower-strength eye drop in this brand family, so it is often chosen for mild to moderate dryness or for people who want a thinner, more comfortable lubricating drop. Compared with Lacrimos 1% eye drops, the 0.5% strength may feel less thick or blurry right after use, while still giving moisture support. A doctor may choose this exact Lacrimos 0.5 % 2 mL Eye Drop when a lighter artificial tear is enough or when frequent, daytime use is preferred.

• Dry eye relief
• Burning or stinging eyes
• Gritty or sandy eye feeling
• Eye irritation from dryness
• Lubrication for everyday dry-eye symptoms

• Wash your hands before using Lacrimos 0.5 % 2 mL Eye Drop.
• Tilt your head back, pull down the lower eyelid, and place the prescribed number of drops into the eye.
• Do not let the dropper tip touch your eye, fingers, or any surface.
• If you use other eye medicines, wait at least 5 to 10 minutes between products.
• Blink gently after instilling the drop and close the eye for a moment to spread it.
• Use exactly as directed by your doctor or pharmacist; this product is for eye use only.

Each dose of Lacrimos 0.5 % 2 mL Eye Drop provides carboxymethylcellulose 0.5% as a lubricating eye drop. It may be used as often as needed for dry eye, but the exact frequency and maximum daily use should be decided by your doctor based on your symptoms and whether you use other eye medicines. Because this is the 0.5% strength, it is a standard lubricating option and not a stronger prescription-only concentration.

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 instillation
• Mild eye stinging or burning
• Eye irritation or discomfort
• Redness of the eye
• Watery eyes
• Sticky or crusty feeling around the eyelids

• For eye use only; do not swallow or inject.
• If you wear contact lenses, remove them before using the drops unless your eye doctor says otherwise.
• Temporary blurred vision can happen after each dose, so wait until your vision clears before driving or using machinery.
• Do not use the dropper if the solution changes color, becomes cloudy, or the container looks damaged.
• Tell your doctor if you have eye infection, eye injury, or ongoing eye pain, because dry eye is not the only cause of symptoms.
• If you need to use more and more drops or symptoms keep returning, get checked by an eye care professional.
• Use caution if you are using multiple eye products, because overlapping drops can wash each other out.

• Other eye drops or ointments may reduce or delay the effect if used at the same time.
• Preservative-containing eye products can increase irritation in sensitive eyes when layered together.
• Contact lenses can interact with the drop if not removed before use.
• Other medications for glaucoma, infection, or inflammation should be spaced apart from Lacrimos 0.5 % 2 mL Eye Drop.

Store Lacrimos 0.5 % 2 mL Eye Drop at room temperature, keep the container tightly closed, and protect it from contamination and excess heat.
