Lon Eye Drop  is used for treating eye inflammation. Fluorometholone falls under the category of ocular corticosteroids, specifically designed to reduce inflammation in the eyes by regulating inflammatory substances release.

It work by triggering the production of lipocortins, proteins that inhibit the creation of inflammatory agents. By interacting with cellular receptors, these corticosteroids regulate specific genes involved in the inflammatory process, ultimately reducing inflammation in the eyes.

Follow the doctor's recommended dose and duration, applying the medication evenly to the affected area.

Common side effects may include eye itching, corneal defects, eye discharge, discomfort, dryness, teary eyes, foreign body sensation in the eyes, eye redness, and headache.

Long term use may lead to increased intraocular pressure, necessitating regular monitoring, especially in individuals with a history of glaucoma. Caution is advised in those with viral eye infections, as corticosteroids might exacerbate conditions like herpes simplex. Antiviral prophylaxis may be considered in such cases.

If a dose is missed, take it as soon as remembered However, if it's nearly time for the next dose, skip the missed one. Avoid doubling doses and consult the doctor for guidance on managing missed doses effectively.
