Systane Eye Drops is an ocular lubricant manufactured by Alcon and available without a prescription in Pakistan. It contains two active ingredients, polyethylene glycol 400 and propylene glycol, which together form a protective, moisture-retaining film on the surface of the eye. This film supplements or replaces the natural tear film, the thin fluid layer that normally keeps the eyes moist and comfortable. People who experience persistent dryness, burning, or irritation of the eyes commonly use this product as part of their daily eye care routine.
Ocular lubricants as a class include a range of products formulated with different polymers and viscosities to suit mild, moderate, or severe dry eye. Systane is available in multiple formulations designed for different levels of relief, making it a flexible option for many patients. A doctor or optometrist can advise on the most appropriate formulation based on the severity of symptoms. Always take Systane Eye Drops as directed by your doctor or pharmacist.
A healthcare professional should confirm that the indication, age and exact formulation match the patient’s needs. An ingredient match alone does not make another brand or formulation interchangeable.
1 to 2 drops in the affected eye(s) as needed

Follow the exact leaflet or contact a pharmacist for missed-dose instructions. Do not double a dose or change a tapering or monitored treatment plan yourself.
