You can sleep immediately after dropping eye drops. When dropping eye drops, the patient should lie on his back or sit down. When sitting, he should raise his head appropriately, look up, gently separate the upper and lower eyelids with his left thumb and index finger, gently pull down the eyelids with his thumb, so that a small bag is formed in the lower eyelids. Hold the medicine bottle or dropper with his right hand. Do not contact the medicine bottle with the eyelashes. Drop one drop of the medicine solution into the eye. Close your eyes gently for one to two minutes to make the eye drops fully contact the eye tissues. only in this way can good results be achieved. Wipe the outflow with clean cotton and handkerchief. Do not wipe your eyes with your hands. Wash your hands before and after each application.
