Description

GoldenEye is a treatment for acute bacterial conjunctivitis.

GoldenEye® stops bacteria from growing and multiplying, controlling the numbers causing the eye infection and helping to relieve your symptoms. The remaining bacteria die or are killed by your body’s immune system.

Recommended for use by children aged 2 years and over, and adults.

Uses / Instructions

For adults and children aged 2 years and over:

A 5 day course of treatment:

If you are using just the eye ointment, apply about 1cm of ointment to the affected eye(s) 3 to 4 times a day.

If you are using Chloramphenicol eye drops during the day and the eye ointment at night – apply the ointment at night, before going to bed.

Side Effects

Like all medicines, this medicine can cause side effects, although not everybody gets them. Some people may get one or more of these side effects. Some effects happen straight away but do not last long – others may only happen after several days of use.

• Allergic reactions such as itching or rashes. If you get a severe reaction, with swelling or breathing problems get medical help straight away.

• Changes in the blood (anaemia) leading to severe tiredness or easy bruising. If you experience these effects, stop using the drops immediately and tell your doctor.

• Discolouration or clouding of the eye surface (cornea) or lens due to preservative.

• The use of topical Chloramphenicol may occasionally result in the over growth of other non susceptible organisms including fungi. If any new infection appears during treatment you should tell your doctor.

• Blurred vision or mild burning or stinging when you put the drops in. These should subside quickly.

• Irritation of the skin around the eyes, mercurialentis (brown discolouration of the lens) and atypical band keratopathy (appearance of calcium on the cornea). These may be due to the preservative in the drops called phenylmercuric nitrate.

If you do not feel well or are worried about your health, talk to a pharmacist or doctor.
