Ocubro 5 mL Eye Drops

Ocubro 5 mL Eye Drops is a bromfenac ophthalmic solution used to help reduce eye pain and inflammation. Each drop contains bromfenac in a 5 mL bottle, giving patients a prescription NSAID eye drop option for short-term treatment. It is commonly used after eye surgery, especially cataract surgery, to control swelling and discomfort. Ocubro 5 mL Eye Drops should be used exactly as directed by an eye doctor.

How it works: Bromfenac blocks substances in the eye that cause pain, redness, and swelling. As an eye drop, Ocubro 5 mL Eye Drops delivers the medicine directly to the eye surface where inflammation is occurring.

Ocubro 5 mL Eye Drops is a standard bottle size for a prescribed bromfenac eye drop, so the full 5 mL container is meant to support the dosing plan your doctor chooses. Because there are no other listed strengths or forms of this brand, the main difference is how long one bottle may last based on the prescribed schedule, not a different ingredient strength. A doctor may choose this eye drop when they want a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory medicine for the eye rather than a steroid.

• Relief of eye pain after surgery
• Reduction of eye inflammation
• Control of swelling in the eye
• Post-cataract surgery care
• Short-term ophthalmic anti-inflammatory treatment

• Wash your hands before using Ocubro 5 mL Eye Drops.
• 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 minutes between drops unless your doctor tells you otherwise.
• Press gently on the inner corner of the eye for 1 to 2 minutes after applying to help keep the medicine in the eye.
• If you wear contact lenses, remove them before using the drops and ask your doctor when you can put them back in.

Ocubro 5 mL Eye Drops comes as a 5 mL bottle of bromfenac eye drops, and the exact number of drops per dose is prescribed by your doctor. It is often used once or twice daily depending on the condition being treated, and the maximum daily use should follow the prescriber’s instructions rather than self-adjustment. The doctor decides the dose, timing, and how long you should continue this eye drop.

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

Common side effects of Bromfenac may include:

• temporary eye burning or stinging
• eye irritation or redness
• blurred vision for a short time after instilling the drop

• eye discomfort
• headache

• Use only in the eye; do not swallow Ocubro 5 mL Eye Drops.
• Tell your doctor if you have a history of aspirin or NSAID allergy.
• Use caution if you have asthma, especially if NSAIDs have triggered breathing problems before.
• Do not wear contact lenses during treatment unless your eye doctor says it is safe.
• This medicine can briefly blur vision, so avoid driving until your vision is clear.
• Use extra caution after recent eye surgery and follow all post-op instructions exactly.
• Do not use more often or longer than prescribed, because overuse may raise the risk of eye irritation or delayed healing.

• Other eye drops or eye ointments used at the same time can change absorption if not spaced apart properly.
• Oral NSAIDs such as ibuprofen or naproxen may increase the chance of NSAID-related side effects in sensitive patients.
• Aspirin may increase the risk of NSAID allergy or intolerance in some people.
• Other medicines that affect bleeding may be important to review with your doctor before using bromfenac eye drops.

Store Ocubro 5 mL Eye Drops at room temperature, keep the bottle tightly closed, and protect it from contamination by avoiding contact between the dropper tip and any surface.
