Description
Indications
Ophthalmic ketorolac is prescribed for the relief of itchy eyes resulting from allergies. It also serves to alleviate swelling and redness that may occur following cataract surgery. Ketorolac belongs to a category of drugs known as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Its mechanism of action involves inhibiting the release of compounds responsible for allergy symptoms and inflammation.
Uses and Dosage
Ophthalmic ketorolac is available in liquid form for application to the eyes. To address allergy symptoms, typically, one drop is applied to the affected eyes four times daily. In the case of post-cataract surgery inflammation, one drop is usually administered to the affected eye four times daily for a duration of 2 weeks, commencing 24 hours after the surgery.
Use ketorolac ophthalmic precisely as directed by your healthcare provider, refraining from using more or less of it or exceeding the prescribed dosage.
You should notice an improvement in your allergy symptoms, particularly the itchiness in your eyes, after using the eye drops. If your symptoms persist or worsen, contact your doctor.
When using ketorolac eye drops to alleviate itchy eyes resulting from allergies, continue using them until you are no longer exposed to the allergen, the allergy season has concluded, or your doctor instructs you to discontinue usage.
To administer the eye drops, the following steps should be followed:
- Thoroughly wash hands with soap and water.
- Do not allow the dropper tip to touch the eye or any other surface, and ensure that it is kept clean.
- Tilt the head back and pull down the lower lid of the eye using the index finger to form a pocket.
- Hold the dropper as close to the eye as possible without making contact, and brace the remaining fingers against the face.
- Squeeze the dropper gently to instill a single drop in the pocket created by the lower eyelid while looking upwards.
- Remove the index finger from the lower eyelid and keep the eye closed for 2-3 minutes while tilting the head down.
- Apply gentle pressure to the tear duct using a finger.
- Use a tissue to wipe off any excess liquid from the face.
- Wash hands to remove any residual medication.
Side Effects
Some side effects may occur that usually do not need medical attention:
- stinging and burning of the eyes
- blurry vision
Inform your healthcare provider immediately if you experience any serious side effects:
- redness or swelling of eyes, lips, tongue, or skin
- infection in or around the eye
- skin rash, hives, or skin changes
- difficulty breathing or swallowing
