Verkazia

Verkazia (ciclosporin) is an immunosuppressant eye drop prescribed for severe dry eye disease. This EU-manufactured solution helps reduce inflammation and improve tear production. Suitable for adults with chronic ocular discomfort. Short-term use may provide relief from persistent dryness symptoms.

Verkazia is used to treat severe dry eye disease when standard treatments have not worked. It helps calm inflammation in the eye’s surface, which can improve moisture and comfort. People often ask, what is ciclosporin eye drops used for, and the answer is chronic dry eye relief. It is not a first-line treatment but may help those with persistent symptoms.

Users may notice reduced redness and irritation after starting ciclosporin eye drops. Some experience improved tear film stability over time, leading to less grittiness or burning sensation. Effects vary by individual and may take several weeks to become noticeable.

Keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use to prevent contamination. Avoid touching the dropper tip to any surface, including the eye, to reduce infection risk. Store at room temperature and protect from light. Do not use if the solution changes color or becomes cloudy.

Ciclosporin eye drops have minimal systemic absorption, so interactions with oral medications are rare. However, concurrent use of other eye drops should be spaced by at least 5 minutes to avoid dilution effects. Always inform your healthcare provider about all medications being used.
