Eyebet Eye Drop 0.10% contains Betamethasone Sodium Phosphate, a potent corticosteroid designed for ophthalmic use. It is indicated for the management of inflammatory eye conditions where suppression of inflammation is required. By reducing swelling, redness, and irritation, Eyebet helps restore comfort and supports the healing process in a range of ocular disorders.

Betamethasone, as a corticosteroid, works by inhibiting the release of inflammatory mediators, reducing capillary permeability, and suppressing leukocyte infiltration in ocular tissues. It is highly effective in controlling both acute and chronic inflammatory eye conditions.

Indications

Eyebet Eye Drop 0.10% is indicated for:

• Inflammatory conditions of the eye, including conjunctivitis and anterior uveitis

• Postoperative inflammation following ocular surgery

• Allergic eye disorders causing redness, swelling, or irritation

• Severe keratitis or iritis when corticosteroid therapy is warranted

Dosage and Administration

Dosage (Adults and Children):

• Instill 1–2 drops in the affected eye(s) 2–4 times daily or as directed by the ophthalmologist

• Adjust dosage according to severity and response to treatment

• For severe inflammation, the frequency may be temporarily increased under medical supervision

Administration Guidelines:

• Wash hands thoroughly before using the drops

• Avoid touching the dropper tip to the eye or any other surface to prevent contamination

• Tilt head back slightly and pull down the lower eyelid to form a small pocket; instill the recommended drops

• Close eyes gently and press lightly on the inner corner of the eye for 1–2 minutes to prevent systemic absorption

• Wait at least 5 minutes before instilling other ophthalmic medications

Mechanism of Action

Betamethasone Sodium Phosphate is a corticosteroid that suppresses inflammation by:

• Inhibiting the release of inflammatory mediators such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes

• Reducing capillary permeability and edema in ocular tissues

• Suppressing leukocyte infiltration and immune-mediated tissue damage

This action reduces redness, swelling, and discomfort associated with inflammatory eye conditions, promoting faster recovery.

Contraindications

• Known hypersensitivity to betamethasone, other corticosteroids, or any component of the formulation

• Active ocular infections caused by viruses (e.g., herpes simplex), fungi, or mycobacteria

• Untreated bacterial eye infections unless appropriate antibiotic therapy is co-administered

Side Effects

Although generally well tolerated, prolonged or improper use may cause:

• Increased intraocular pressure (glaucoma)

• Cataract formation with long-term use

• Delayed wound healing

• Secondary eye infections due to immune suppression

• Mild stinging or burning immediately after instillation
