What is it?
ODEM - ODM Hyperosmolar Solution for Ocular Use, Preservative-Free Description: 10 ml multi-dose bottle, preservative-free. Composition: Sodium Chloride 5% (sodium chloride), Sodium Hyaluronate 0.15% (sodium hyaluronate). Excipients: Purified Water, Trisodium Citrate Dihydrate, Citric Acid Monohydrate, Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose. ODM 5® contains Sodium Hyaluronate. This component is naturally present in the eye and acts as a lubricant, protecting the cornea. When to use ODM 5®? ODM 5® is recommended for corneal edema caused by corneal dystrophies, or post-traumatic and post-surgical edema. Corneal edema is characterized by the accumulation of excess fluid in the cornea. ODM 5® is a hypertonic solution that, through osmotic action, draws excess fluid from the cornea, temporarily restoring normal corneal hydration. In this way, ODM 5® improves the quality of your vision. How to use ODM 5®? Wash your hands thoroughly before instilling the product. Instill 1 or 2 drops 4 times a day, as recommended by your doctor. Instill the drop(s) into the lower conjunctival sac, look up, and gently pull down the lower eyelid. After instillation, close your eyes for 1-2 minutes. Do not touch the ocular surface or eyelid with the tip of the bottle. Rinsing the eye is not necessary after instillation.
