It provides short-term relief from minor eye redness, itching, and irritation related to allergy or environmental causes.<\/p>\n<h2>Hoe het werkt<\/h2>\n<p>Combination eye drops typically contain a vasoconstrictor (naphazoline or tetrahydrozoline) to whiten the eye, an antihistamine (chlorpheniramine, pheniramine) to relieve itching, and sometimes zinc sulfate as an astringent. The combination works within minutes for symptomatic relief but does not treat underlying disease.<\/p>\n<h2>Indicaties<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Mild allergic conjunctivitis<\/li>\n<li>Environmental eye irritation (dust, smoke, chlorine)<\/li>\n<li>Short-term symptomatic relief of red, itchy eyes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Dosering<\/h2>\n<p>1\u20132 drops in affected eye(s) up to 4 times daily as needed. Do not exceed 3\u20135 consecutive days \u2014 rebound congestion is a recognised problem with all decongestant-containing drops.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background:#fff3f3;border-left:4px solid #d9534f;padding:12px 16px;margin:14px 0;border-radius:4px;font-size:14px;line-height:1.55;\"><strong style=\"color:#a94442;\">Rebound congestion warning.<\/strong> The vasoconstrictor component causes dependency-style rebound redness if used &gt; 3\u20135 days continuously. Eyes become redder than baseline between doses and patients become locked into using the drop. Stop after 5 days. If chronic redness is the issue, the underlying cause needs treatment.<\/div>\n<h2>Bijwerkingen<\/h2>\n<p>Stinging, mydriasis (pupil dilation), dry sensation, blurred vision, rebound congestion with prolonged use. Systemic effects rare but include hypertension, palpitations, headache.<\/p>\n<h2>Waarschuwingen &amp; Contra-indicaties<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Narrow-angle glaucoma \u2014 pupil dilation can precipitate angle closure<\/li>\n<li>Severe cardiovascular disease, uncontrolled hypertension, hyperthyroidism<\/li>\n<li>Kinderen &lt; 6 jaar<\/li>\n<li>Gelijktijdig gebruik van MAO-remmers<\/li>\n<li>Pregnancy \/ breastfeeding \u2014 use only if clearly needed<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Opslag<\/h2>\n<p>Bewaren bij 15\u201325\u00b0C.

NOT for chronic dry eye, blepharitis, or moderate-severe allergic disease \u2014 those need different treatment.<\/p>\n<h3>How long can I use Opthocare Eye Drop?<\/h3>\n<p>Maximum 3\u20135 consecutive days. Beyond that, rebound congestion makes the redness worse than baseline.<\/p>\n<h3>What is rebound congestion?<\/h3>\n<p>Decongestant drops cause vasoconstriction that lasts 2\u20134 hours. As the drug wears off, blood vessels rebound to wider-than-normal dilation, making the eye redder. Continued use locks patients into a cycle of worsening redness.<\/p>\n<h3>Should I use Opthocare Eye Drop for chronic allergy?<\/h3>\n<p>No \u2014 use a true antihistamine drop (olopatadine, epinastine) which can be used long-term safely. Decongestant combinations are for short-term symptomatic relief only.<\/p>\n<h3>Can children use Opthocare Eye Drop?<\/h3>\n<p>Avoid in children under 6 \u2014 systemic absorption of vasoconstrictor can cause CNS depression. Discuss with a paediatrician for older children.<\/p>\n<h3>Wat als ik een hoge bloeddruk heb?<\/h3>\n<p>Topical decongestants can be absorbed and raise BP. Use with caution in uncontrolled hypertension and avoid in severe cardiovascular disease.<\/p>\n<h3>Will Opthocare Eye Drop make my pupils dilate?<\/h3>\n<p>Mild pupil dilation is possible from the alpha-adrenergic component \u2014 can precipitate angle-closure glaucoma in narrow-angle eyes.<\/p>\n<h3>What&#039;s a better long-term solution for red eyes?<\/h3>\n<p>Treat the underlying cause: allergy (antihistamine drops, allergen avoidance), dry eye (lubricants, cyclosporine), blepharitis (lid hygiene), episcleritis (NSAID drops). Mask drops are short-term only.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I use Opthocare Eye Drop with contact lenses?<\/h3>\n<p>Remove lenses before instillation; reinsert after 10 minutes. Limit total daily use.<\/p>\n<h3>What if my eyes are still red after 5 days?<\/h3>\n<p>Stop the drop. See an eye-care professional to identify and treat the underlying cause.<\/p>\n<p><!-- medsbase-related-alts-v1 --><\/p>\n<h3>Andere oogzorgmedicijnen<\/h3>\n<p>Klanten die dit product bekijken, overwegen ook deze alternatieven in ons <a href=\"\/nl\/eye-care\/\">Oogzorg<\/a> assortiment:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/olopat-eye-drop\/\">Olopat Eye Drop (olopatadine)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/pataday-eye-drop\/\">Pataday Eye Drop (olopatadine)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/epina-eye-drop\/\">Epina Eye Drop (epinastine)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/albalon-eye-drop\/\">Albalon Eye Drop (naphazoline)<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/medsbase.com\/nl\/ocurest-ah-eye-drops\/\">Ocurest-AH Eye Drops<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Medische Disclaimer<\/h3>\n<p style=\"font-size:13px;color:#555;\">De informatie op deze pagina is alleen voor educatieve doeleinden en is geen vervanging voor medisch advies van een gekwalificeerde oogarts of optometrist.
