Have You Ever Been Prescribed Eyedrops?

Philippines

I've been prescribed Cellufresh, then Systane. Now it's Celsus. With the first two, I wasn't able to finish the tiny bottle because I keep forgetting. Now, I try to remember when I wake up and before sleeping. Do you lie down, sit or stand when using eyedrops?

It is been ages since I used eye drops. I have to tilt my head for the eye drops.

Which mean you're standing up or sitting down when you do it?

It was from a long time ago. I sit when I put it in my eyes. That time it is available at the pharmacy and no prescriptions needed but now they must issue one before you can buy

I lie down because I'm clumsy, and even lying down, I still miss! What happened to your eyes back then?

@merrybelle2021 I look where I put the drops I cannot see how lying down could help.

I use eye drops every morning...artificial tears and drops for Glaucoma. I keep them in the bathroom cabinet and when I first get up, I set the bottles on the side of the sink and after I use the drops, I put the bottles back in the cabinet. That way I don't have to worry if I've forgotten or maybe used them twice.

What are those for and why do you need them? I put eye drops in any position. I can do it standing, sitting or lying down.

They say it's because we tend to forget to blink when in front of a screen. I need to have my eyeglasses checked.

I haven’t used them in years, but stand, tilt my head back, and let the drops fall into my eye/eyes.
