A Waylable 1% Eye Drop 10 ML is instilled topically.

A Waylable 1% Eye Drop 10 ML contain prednisolone (1%), which works on your body in several ways:

• Inflammation inhibition: Prednisolone inhibits your body's inflammatory response to various agents. This helps reduce inflammation in the affected parts of the eye.

• Delayed healing: Although not fully understood, it is suggested that prednisolone may delay or slow down healing processes.

• Inhibition of oedema and scar formation: Prednisolone also inhibits oedema (swelling), fibrin deposition (clot formation), capillary dilation (widening of small blood vessels), migration of leukocytes (white blood cells), capillary proliferation (increase in small blood vessels), collagen deposition (building blocks of tissue), and scar formation associated with inflammation.

• Control of inflammation mediators: Prednisolone is thought to induce proteins called lipocortins, which inhibit phospholipase A2. This action controls the production of inflammation mediators like prostaglandins and leukotrienes by preventing the release of their precursor, arachidonic acid.

• Increase in Intraocular Pressure (IOP): While helping with inflammation, corticosteroids like prednisolone can cause an increase in intraocular pressure.

Store A Waylable 1% Eye Drop 10 ML upright, away from direct light and moisture.

• Once opened, use the drops until the expiration date if stored properly.

• Dispose of the bottle four weeks after opening.

• Do not use it if the solution changes colour or becomes cloudy.

• Keep out of reach of children.

• If you have been diagnosed with allergic conjunctivitis, try to avoid known allergens in your diet or environment that may exacerbate your condition. This could include certain foods, dust mites, or pollen.

• For those with eye conditions related to inflammation like iritis and cyclitis, it may be beneficial to adopt a diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids found in fish like salmon and sardines, as they are known to reduce inflammation. Always consult your doctor before making any significant changes to your diet or lifestyle.
