Leos Eye Drop

Leos Eye Drop belongs to a class of medications called corticosteroids primarily used to treat post-operative inflammation and pain following ocular surgery. Pain is an unpleasant sensation and emotional experience that is associated with tissue damage. Inflammation is the immune system's natural response to injury or infection. Leos Eye Drop is prescribed to treat redness and swelling (inflammation) of the eye.

Leos Eye Drop contains Loteprednol etabonate. It is a corticosteroid that works by blocking prostaglandins (a chemical messenger) in the brain that cause inflammation and swelling. Thereby, Leos Eye Drop helps treat inflammation and pain. 

Leos Eye Drop is for ophthalmic use only. You are advised to use Leos Eye Drop for as long as your doctor has prescribed it. In some cases, Leos Eye Drop may cause watery eyes, irritation, itching, and foreign body sensation in the eye. Most of these side effects of Leos Eye Drop are temporary, do not require medical attention, and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects are persistent, reach out to your doctor.

Do not take Leos Eye Drop if you are allergic to corticosteroids or any ingredient of Leos Eye Drop. Also, do not use more than the prescribed dose of Leos Eye Drop as it may cause glaucoma, fungal infections, and cataracts. Do not take any other eye medication with Leos Eye Drop, without consulting your doctor. If you have/had glaucoma (increased eye pressure), herpes simplex infection, any other eye problem, are pregnant or breastfeeding, do not take Leos Eye Drop unless prescribed by your doctor.
