Why aren’t artificial
tears enough for me?
Alison Tendler MD,
RESTASIS® User, Eye Doctor
They provide temporary relief.
If your type of Chronic Dry Eye
causes inflammation which
decreases your ability to make tears,
use RESTASIS®. I do.
RESTASIS® Ophthalmic Emulsion helps increase your eyes’ natural ability to produce tears, which may be
reduced by inflammation due to Chronic Dry Eye. RESTASIS® did not increase tear production in patients using
anti-inflammatory eye drops or tear duct plugs.
Important Safety Information:
RESTASIS® Ophthalmic Emulsion should not be used by patients with active eye infections and has not been
studied in patients with a history of herpes viral infections of the eye. RESTASIS® should not be used while
wearing contact lenses. If contact lenses are worn, they should be removed prior to use. The most common
side effect is a temporary burning sensation. Other side effects include eye redness, discharge, watery eyes,
eye pain, foreign body sensation, itching, stinging, and blurred vision.
You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA.
