FAQs Answered by Pharmacists – Optrex Multi Action Eye Wash

What is eye wash used for, and when should I use it?

Optrex Multi Action Eye Wash cleans and refreshes the eyes, especially when they feel dry, irritated, or tired from screen time, driving, air conditioning, or dust. It’s great for flushing out particles like grit, pollen, and smoke. You can use it any time of day when your eyes feel uncomfortable, even daily.

How do I use the eye wash properly to clean my eyes?

Pour the eye wash into the special FlexiSeal eye bath until it reaches the marked line. Place the cup over your eye (face down over a sink), then tilt your head back slowly with your eye open. Move your head side-to-side or look around for about 30 seconds. This helps rinse your whole eye surface. Pour away any leftover solution and rinse the cup before and after use.

Can children use Optrex Eye Wash safely?

This eye wash is safe for children, but only with adult supervision. Help them hold the eye bath correctly and guide their head movements so the solution properly rinses the eye. If your child has red, sore, or painful eyes, check with a pharmacist first before using any eye product.

Can I use this eyewash while wearing contact lenses?

No, you should remove contact lenses before using this product. Wait at least 15 minutes after using the eye wash before putting your lenses back in. This helps avoid discomfort and lets your eyes fully absorb the soothing effects.

Can I use Optrex Eye Wash with other eye treatments?

Yes, but space them out. If you use other medicated eye drops or gels, use the eye wash first to clean the eyes, and then wait about 10 minutes before applying any other product. This helps the medicine work better and stops it from being washed out.

What should I do if the eye wash causes stinging or irritation?

It’s normal to feel a slight coolness or wetness during use, but if you feel burning, stinging, or redness, stop using it and rinse your eyes with clean water. If irritation continues or your eyes become painful, see your pharmacist or doctor. Never use the product past its expiry date or 28 days after opening.

What makes this eye wash different from other eye products?

Optrex Eye Wash is designed for whole-eye rinsing, not just a few drops like typical eye drops. It uses witch hazel, a natural extract that helps soothe and cool the eye, and it’s balanced to match your eye’s natural pH level. The included FlexiSeal eye bath also helps prevent leaks and ensures even washing of the eye surface.
