How To Use Eye Drops: Step-by‑Step

1. Wash your hands well.

2. Shake the bottle if needed and remove the cap—don’t let the dropper touch anything.

3. Tilt your head back (or lie down) and gently pull down your lower eyelid.

4. Look upward and place one drop into the lower eyelid pocket.

5. Close your eye gently, and press the inner corner for 1–2 minutes.

6. Wait 5 minutes before applying another eye drop or ointment to the same eye.

7. Wipe away any excess with a clean tissue and recap the bottle.

8. Wash your hands again afterwards.
