KERATO Vita

Ophthalmic ointment

Description
Preservative-free ophthalmic ointment, which contains, in addition to dexpanthenol, also vitamin A and vitamin E.
It is used for long-term improvement of the tear film and for intensive protection of the ocular surface. Its protective cellular properties allow normal re-epithelialization when it is compromised by dryness.
Due to its high viscosity properties, Kerato VitA ophthalmic ointment covers the surface of the eye like a film, stabilizes the tear film and protects the eye from dryness.
Due to its very soft and elastic consistency, Kerato VitA spreads very well on the ocular surface. The eyelids glide easily over the cornea and conjunctiva.
Kerato VitA provides long-lasting relief from symptoms of dryness, inflammation and mild irritation, especially:
- for dry eyes;
- in environmental stress;
- in case of fatigue and visual stress caused by prolonged viewing;
- in case of mechanical stress.

How to use
Wash your hands thoroughly every time before using Kerato VitA.
Before first use, break the safety seal by unscrewing the protective cap screw counterclockwise and remove the safety seal foil before use.
Hold the tube as vertically as possible, with the opening pointing down, above the eye. Avoid any contact of the tip of the tube with your fingers or eye.
Now tilt your head back slightly and gently pull down your lower eyelid with your free hand. Press the tube gently and apply approximately 0.5 cm of ointment to the conjunctival sac of the affected eye. Close your eyes slowly and move them in all directions so that Kerato VitA can spread evenly over the surface of the eyes. After use, replace the protective cap on the tube.
Be careful not to touch the tip of the tube. Avoid bending or rolling the tube to damage it.

Kerato VitA is generally used 3 times a day for long-term improvement of the tear film and intensive protection of the ocular surface.
It is recommended to apply the ointment, preferably in the evening, before going to bed, to have an intense and long-lasting effect on irritated eyes. The application should be continued for at least 30 days.
Your ophthalmologist should determine the frequency and duration of application. If symptoms persist after this period, contact your ophthalmologist again.
If you are using any other topical eye treatment, consult your eye doctor. Generally, wait approximately 30 minutes between applications. Kerato VitA should be applied after other products.
