This article will introduce the list of ophthalmic drugs used in the Third Hospital of Zhongshan, Guangzhou, and provide correct use methods to help patients use drugs correctly and protect eye health.
1. Antibiotics
Antibiotics can effectively treat some ocular infectious diseases, such as bacterial conjunctivitis, keratitis, etc. Common ophthalmic antibiotics include chloramphenicol eye ointment, gentamicin eye drops, etc. Pay attention to the following points when using antibiotics:
First, wash your hands carefully before use and clean your eyes to avoid introducing new bacteria. When using eyedrops, you can first put the bottle in warm water to heat it, and then take an appropriate amount of eyedrops to drip into your eyes.
Secondly, accurate quantification is required to avoid too many or too few drugs. For eye ointment drugs, use a sterile cotton swab to evenly smear an appropriate amount of ointment on the inner side of the eyelid, and then gently close the eyes to help better absorb the drugs.
Finally, when using antibiotics, the time and frequency of use should be in accordance with the doctor's recommendations. Even if the symptoms disappear, the drug should not be stopped prematurely, or resistance will easily occur.
2. Anti inflammatory drugs
Anti inflammatory drugs are commonly used to treat ocular inflammation, such as blepharitis, conjunctivitis, etc. Common anti-inflammatory eye drops include ofloxacin eye drops, rifampicin eye drops, etc. Pay attention to the following points when using anti-inflammatory drugs correctly:
First, before eye drops, it is necessary to clean the eyes, close the eyes, and gently wipe the eyelids with a sterile cotton swab to remove the bacteria in the tears, so as not to affect the efficacy.
Secondly, when using eye drops, you need to raise your head, aim the bottle at your eyes, gently pull down the lower eyelid with one hand, and drop 2-3 drops of eye drops with the other hand. Try not to let the bottle touch the eyes or skin when dropping the eye drops to avoid polluting the liquid medicine.
Finally, when using anti-inflammatory drugs, you should follow the doctor's advice, and should not use too much or drop eyes frequently to avoid damage to eye tissues.
3. Lubricants
Lubricants are mainly used to relieve discomfort such as dryness and fatigue of the eyes. Common lubricants include artificial tears, synthetic eye drops, etc. Pay attention to the following points when using lubricants correctly:
First, wash your hands and gently wipe your eyes with eye gauze or sterile gauze before use to keep your eyes clean.
Secondly, when dropping eye drops, you need to raise your head, aim the bottle at your eyes, gently pull down the lower eyelid with one hand, and drop an appropriate amount of liquid medicine with the other hand. After eye drops, gently close your eyes to better distribute the tears on the eye surface.
Finally, when using lubricants, the frequency and interval of use should be determined according to personal needs and doctor's recommendations. If you feel dry after using electronic products for a long time, you can appropriately increase the frequency of lubricant use.
4. Anti allergy drugs
Anti allergy drugs are mainly used to relieve eye allergy symptoms, such as food allergy, pollen allergy, etc. Common anti allergy eyedrops include antihistamine eyedrops, glucocorticoid eyedrops, etc. Pay attention to the following points when using anti allergy drugs correctly:
First, wash your hands and clean your eyes before use. When using eyedrops, you can first put the bottle in warm water to heat it, and then take an appropriate amount of eyedrops to drip into your eyes. When using eyedrops, you can raise your head slightly, gently pull down the lower eyelid, and drop 2-3 drops of eyedrops.
Secondly, when using anti allergy drugs, the time and frequency of use should be in accordance with the doctor's recommendations. If you are exposed to allergen stimulation for a long time, you may need to use anti allergy drugs for a long time.
