Description
Preservative-free ophthalmic ointment that contains, in addition to dexpanthenol, also vitamin A and vitamin E.
It is used for the long-term improvement of the tear film and for the intensive protection of the ocular surface. Its cell-protective properties allow for normal re-epithelialization when compromised by dryness.
Thanks to its high viscosity properties, Kerato VitA ophthalmic ointment covers the surface of the eye like a film, stabilizes the tear film, and protects the eye from dryness.
Thanks to its very soft and elastic consistency, Kerato VitA spreads very well on the ocular surface. The eyelids glide easily over the cornea and conjunctiva.
Kerato VitA provides lasting relief from symptoms of dryness, inflammation, and slight irritation, in particular:
- for dry eyes;
- in environmental stress;
- in case of fatigue and visual stress caused by prolonged vision;
- in case of mechanical stress.

Instructions for use
Wash your hands thoroughly each time before using Kerato VitA.
Before first use, break the safety seal by opening the protective cap screw counter-clockwise and remove the safety seal film before use.
Hold the tube as vertically as possible, with the opening facing downwards, above the eye. Avoid any contact of the tube tip with your fingers and eye.
Now tilt your head slightly back and gently pull down your lower eyelid with your free hand. Gently squeeze the tube and apply approximately 0.5 cm of ointment into the conjunctival sac of the affected eye. Slowly close your eyes and move your eyeballs in every direction, so that Kerato VitA can spread evenly over the surface of your eyes. After use, close the tube with the protective cap.
Be careful not to touch the tip of the tube. Avoid bending or rolling the tube to avoid damaging it.

Kerato VitA is generally used 3 times a day for long-term improvement of the tear film and for intensive protection of the ocular surface.
It is recommended to apply the ointment preferably in the evening before going to bed, so that it can have an intensive and lasting effect on irritated eyes. Application should be continued for a period of at least 30 days.
The ophthalmologist must determine the frequency and duration of application. If symptoms persist after this period, consult your ophthalmologist again.
In case of another local eye treatment, consult your ophthalmologist. In general, approximately 30 minutes should pass between the two applications. Kerato VitA should be applied after other products.
