It is a soothing solution that is used as an artificial tear when the eyes are lacking in tears. Your eyes will normally produce just enough natural tears to allow them to move easily and comfortably.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIf your eyes do not produce enough tears they can become dry, red and painful. Your drops keep the surface of the eye lubricated (moist) when production of tears is less than normal, and has a refreshing, cooling action.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe hypromellose in these drops increases the thickness of the solution which has a moisturising effect and helps the solution to stay in contact with your eye for a longer period of time. Artelac can be used by children, adults and the elderly\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eArtelac\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTherapy of dry eye syndrome requires an individual dosage regimen.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eWearers of contact lenses should remove their lenses before Artelac is an administered and should wait at least 15 minutes before they insert them again.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eArtelac ion installation may cause a short term blurring of vision when first used.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eIf affected, wait until vision has cleared before driving or operating machinery.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eDosage\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eAlways use your solution exactly as your doctor or pharmacist has told you to.
