Description
Indications
Ophthalmic nepafenac is employed to alleviate eye pain, reduce redness, and diminish swelling in individuals recuperating from cataract surgery, a procedure designed to address lens clouding within the eye. Nepafenac belongs to the category of medications known as nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Its mechanism involves inhibiting the synthesis of specific natural compounds that trigger pain and swelling.
Uses and Dosage
Ophthalmic nepafenac is available in a liquid suspension form that is administered by instilling it into the eyes. Typically, it is applied three times daily, starting one day before cataract surgery, continuing on the surgery day, and for the subsequent 14 days after the surgery. Employ nepafenac eye drops at approximately the same times each day.
Administer nepafenac eye drops in exact accordance with the instructions. Avoid exceeding or reducing the prescribed amount, and refrain from using them more frequently than directed by your doctor.
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.
