Here’s a step-by-step guide on applying Upneeq:
- Wash your hands: Clean hands are essential to prevent eye infections.
- Remove contact lenses (if applicable): Take out your contact lenses before using Upneeq. You can reinsert them 15 minutes after applying the drops.
- Open the single-use vial: Upneeq comes in individual, single-use vials. Tear open the foil wrapper and remove one vial.
- Tilt your head back: Look upwards and gently pull down your lower eyelid to form a small pouch.
- Apply one drop: Carefully squeeze one drop of Upneeq into the pouch of each affected eye. Avoid touching the tip of the vial to your eye.
- Close your eyes: Gently close your eyes for a couple of minutes to allow the medication to spread.
- Discard the vial: Each vial is for one-time use only. Dispose of it responsibly, even if it seems like there’s some liquid left.
Important: Your healthcare provider at AIVI Aesthetics in Agoura Hills may offer additional tips and demonstrate proper application techniques.
