Ask Your Doctor About RESTASIS

Ask Your Eye Doctor

Even if you’ve discussed your dry eye condition with your eye doctor in the past, the availability of RESTASIS^® Ophthalmic Emulsion is a good reason to bring up the topic again. However, it is important for you to do a little “homework” before you see the eye doctor.

If you haven’t already completed and printed your own copy of the Dry Eye Actionnaire, you can do so now, and bring it with you on your next visit.

You and your eye doctor should discuss the Actionnaire — and your condition — to determine whether RESTASIS^® prescription eye drops are right for you.

Some questions to ask your eye doctor during the office visit:

Does regular use of over-the-counter drops mean I have Chronic Dry Eye?
How can you tell if I have Chronic Dry Eye?
Are there different kinds of Chronic Dry Eye?
What are the treatments for Chronic Dry Eye?
Will I have to start using a prescription eye drop?

Take the Self-Screener

Complete the Dry Eye Actionnaire and print it out to bring to your next eye doctor’s appointment.

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 topical steroid drops or tear duct plugs.

Important Safety Information:

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.
