What is Visine advanced relief?

Visine Advanced Relief (for the eyes) is used to relieve eye redness or dryness caused by minor eye irritations, and to protect the eyes from further irritation.

Visine Advanced Relief may also be used for purposes not listed in this medication guide.

Warnings

Ask a doctor or pharmacist if this medicine is safe to use if you have ever had glaucoma.

How should I use Visine advanced relief

Use exactly as directed on the label, or as prescribed by your doctor.

Do not use while wearing soft contact lenses. A preservative in this medicine could permanently stain the lenses. Use the medicine at least 15 minutes before inserting your contact lenses.

Wash your hands before using eye medication.

To apply the eye drops: Tilt your head back slightly and pull down your lower eyelid to create a small pocket. Hold the dropper above the eye and squeeze a drop into this pocket. Close your eyes for 1 or 2 minutes.

Use only the number of drops recommended on the medicine label.

Do not touch the tip of the eye dropper or place it directly on your eye. A contaminated dropper can infect your eye, which could lead to serious vision problems.

Do not use the medicine if it has changed colors or looks cloudy.

Store this medicine in an upright position at room temperature. Do not freeze.
