Ma'am always mention a date over the Eyedrops whenever you open it and use only for a period of 1 month. Maintain hand hygiene while using the Eyedrops , keep the Eyedrops out of reach of children and store in a clean space . After you remove the cap do not touch the tip of the Eyedrops bottle and while putting the Eyedrops do not touch the tip to the eye.
