Assigned to instill drop by drop three times a day. At first I was worried: the burning sensation and pain decreased, but the quality of vision did not improve.

On the third day, the pain was gone. And after canceling the drops, the vision returned to the state it was before the illness. I wear glasses. Now I'm not complaining about inflammation. I try to protect my eyes. As for the drug, the remedy is good, it helps. "
