Quick tips

Your doctor has prescribed Xiclone 0.1% Eye Capsule to relieve inflammation (redness and swelling) in dry eye disease.
Apply pressure on the corner of the eye (close to the nose) for about 1 minute, immediately after instilling the drop so that the medicine does not drain away from the eye.
When applying multiple eye medications, wait for at least 5-10 minutes before delivering the next medication in the same eye to avoid dilution.
Take care to prevent contact of eye dispenser with eye, eyelid, eyelashes, or finger to avoid infection.
You may experience a stinging sensation for 1-2 mins after instilling Xiclone 0.1% Eye Capsule. Notify your doctor if it persists for longer.
Make sure to use within 4 weeks of opening the bottle.

Hello doctor,I am a student so I sleep late and I rarely get a sleep of more than 7 hours and there's significant usage of phone while I'm awake. My eyesight seems to be normal but when I wake up in the morning, my eyelids are heavy and I find it difficult to keep my eyes open and there is minor irritation in the eyes. It goes away as the day progresses and after I wash my eyes properly in the morning. Please let me know what could be the problem and what medicine should I take to counter it. Thanks a lot :)
