• People who specifically want a strong cooling sensation rather than a mild one.
• Not for soft contact lens wearers while lenses are in, and not for anyone under treatment for glaucoma without asking their doctor first.

How to Use

1. Tilt your head back and gently pull down the lower eyelid.
2. Instil 2 to 3 drops into each eye.
3. Blink gently to spread the drops.
4. Do not let the tip of the bottle touch your eye, eyelid or lashes.
5. Close the bottle firmly after use and store it away from direct sunlight and heat.

Full Ingredients

Active ingredient	Amount per 100 ml	Action
Neostigmine methylsulfate	0.005%	improves the eye's focus adjustment
Taurine	1.0%	promotes metabolism in eye tissue
L-Aspartic acid potassium	1.0%	supports tissue respiration
Tetrahydrozoline hydrochloride	0.05%	constricts conjunctival vessels, clearing redness
Chlorpheniramine maleate	0.03%	blocks histamine, reducing itching
Epsilon-aminocaproic acid	1.0%	suppresses production of inflammatory substances

Inactive ingredients: Chlorobutanol, benzalkonium chloride, boric acid, d-borneol, dl-camphor, l-menthol, pH adjusters. The cooling sensation comes from the last three; the benzalkonium chloride is the preservative, and it is the reason this one must not be used with soft contact lenses in.

Approved indications: Eye fatigue; eye haziness (when discharge is heavy); conjunctival redness; eye itching; blepharitis (sore eyelids); prevention of eye disease (after swimming, or when dust or sweat gets into the eye); inflammation of the eye caused by ultraviolet or other light (such as snow blindness); discomfort while wearing hard contact lenses.

Cautions

• For ophthalmic use only. This is a medicine — use it for the indications listed above and nothing else.
• Consult a doctor or pharmacist before use if you are under medical treatment, have had an allergic reaction to a medicine, have severe eye pain, or have been diagnosed with glaucoma.
• Stop use and seek advice if you develop a rash, redness or itching of the skin, or congestion, itching, swelling or stinging of the eye.
• Stop use and seek advice if haziness does not improve, or if there is no improvement after 5–6 days.
• Overuse can cause abnormal glare or, paradoxically, more redness than you started with.
• Do not touch the bottle tip to the eye, eyelid or lashes; do not use the solution if it has become cloudy or changed colour.
• Do not share the bottle with anyone else, and do not decant it into another container.
• Children should use it only under adult supervision. Keep out of reach of children.
• Store closed, out of direct sunlight, in a cool place. Do not leave it above 40 °C — a car interior or near a heater will do that.
• Do not use past the expiry date printed on the base of the carton, and finish an opened bottle promptly.

FAQ

How many drops, and how often?

Two to three drops each time, 5 to 6 times a day. That is Santen Pharmaceutical's own instruction; more than that is not better and can cause glare or rebound redness.

Can I use it with contact lenses in?

Do not use while wearing soft contact lenses — this formula contains benzalkonium chloride, which soft lenses absorb. Discomfort during hard contact lens wear is one of the listed indications, so hard lenses may stay in.

How many active ingredients does it actually have?

Santen Pharmaceutical declares 6, and all 6 are listed above with their amounts per 100 ml and the action Santen Pharmaceutical attributes to each.

Does it contain a preservative?

Yes — benzalkonium chloride. That is standard for this category, and it is the specific reason the drops must not be used with soft contact lenses in, since soft lenses absorb it.

Is this the authentic Japanese product?

Yes. We source directly from Japan and dispatch every order from our warehouse in Kobe with full tracking. Note that this is a Class 2 designated OTC medicine in Japan; many countries restrict the import of foreign OTC medicines, so please check your destination's rules before ordering.
