Ocupol should only be applied to the affected eye or ear. Follow your doctor’s dosage and duration instructions closely. Make sure to wash your hands before using the drops, and avoid using more or less than recommended. Even if symptoms improve, continue the full course of treatment to ensure complete healing.
