Expert Advice

Your doctor will prescribe Carboxy Methyl Cellulose to treat dry eye conditions. Carboxy Methyl Cellulose relieves dryness and irritation of the eyes by stabilizing the tear film and maintaining the lubricating fluid. Carboxy Methyl Cellulose can be taken for a long period of time. After placing the Carboxy Methyl Cellulose drop into the eye, you should immediately apply pressure to the outer corner of the eye (near the nose) for around 1 minute. Before taking another medication into the same eye, you should wait at least 5-10 minutes to ensure that the Carboxy Methyl Cellulose is not diluted. There may be a stinging sensation for 1-2 minutes. Consult your doctor if Carboxy Methyl Cellulose remains for an extended period of time. After opening the Carboxy Methyl Cellulose bottle, it should be used within four weeks.
