Overview Low-Dex Eye Drops
Dexamethasone ophthalmic solution, a corticosteroid medication, treats various eye conditions. It effectively diminishes inflammation and redness stemming from infections, allergic reactions, or trauma. Post-surgical application is also common. Discard the bottle if the seal is compromised. Always wash hands prior to use and shake the container vigorously. Contact lenses must be removed, with reinsertion delayed at least 15 minutes. Do not cease treatment prematurely without your physician's instruction; early discontinuation could lead to infection recurrence. Minor side effects, including eye irritation, blurred vision, and a bitter taste, are generally transient. Avoid driving or operating machinery if vision is impaired.
