The ophthalmologist should be visited immediately when strong acute or one-sided eye reddening occurs or severe eye and headache, vision deterioration, seeing double images or flying points in front of the eyes.
    • Notes for contact lens carriers

If in exceptional cases it is permitted to wear hard contact lenses, take them out before dropping and only use them again 15 minutes after dropping. Soft contact lenses may not be worn with eye drops preserved with benzalkonium chloride such as this preparation.
