Eye Drops For Americans

All ophthalmic medications require a valid prescription from a licensed U.S. prescriber that matches the order exactly. Canada Drugs Online reserves the right to refuse any order if the prescription appears falsified, altered, incomplete, or otherwise invalid. For more information, please review our Prescription Approval Policy.

About Ophthalmic Therapy

Pharmacist Counseling Note: The "Pocket" Technique

When administering eye drops, gently pull down your lower eyelid to create a small "pocket." Squeeze one drop into this pocket rather than directly onto the center of the eye—this helps prevent blinking the medicine out. After the drop is in, close your eye and gently press the inner corner (near the nose) for about 60 seconds to improve absorption. [3]

Frequently Asked Questions

What kinds of prescriptions are included in eye drops?
Eye drop treatment can include prescriptions used for glaucoma, dry eye care, allergy relief, eye infections, and inflammation-related treatment needs. [1]
Are generic eye drops medically the same as brand names?
Yes. Generic medications contain the same active ingredients and meet identical bioequivalence standards as their brand-name versions. [4]
How should I put in my eye drops?
Gently pull down your lower eyelid to create a "pocket," squeeze one drop into it, and then press the inner corner of your eye for 1 minute to ensure absorption. [3]
Do I need a prescription to order eye drops from Canada Drugs Online?
Yes. A valid prescription from a licensed U.S. prescriber is required for all prescription-strength eye medications.
Can I use multiple types of eye drops at once?
Yes, but wait at least 5 minutes between different medications to prevent the first drop from being washed out by the second. [3]
Is cold storage required for all eye drops?
No. While some like Latanoprost require refrigeration before opening, many can be stored at room temperature once in use. Check your label for specifics.
