What is Diclofenac Sodium?

Voltarol Ophtha eye drops contain diclofenac sodium, a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) for ocular use. These drops help reduce eye pain, swelling, and light sensitivity after procedures or injuries. Suitable for short-term relief in adults and children over 12.

What is Diclofenac Sodium used for?

Voltarol Ophtha eye drops are used to relieve pain and inflammation in the eye following cataract surgery or other eye procedures. They may also help with eye discomfort caused by minor injuries or infections. This medication belongs to a class of drugs known as NSAIDs, which work by reducing substances in the body that cause pain and swelling. It is not intended for long-term use without medical supervision.

What are the side effects of Diclofenac Sodium?

After application, Voltarol Ophtha may temporarily relieve eye pain, redness, and swelling. Some users report a brief stinging or burning sensation in the eye after instillation. These effects are usually mild and short-lived. The drops work locally in the eye to reduce inflammation and discomfort.

What precautions apply to Diclofenac Sodium?

Keep the container tightly closed when not in use to prevent contamination. Avoid touching the dropper tip to any surface, including the eye, to reduce the risk of infection. Do not use if the solution changes color or becomes cloudy. Consult a healthcare provider if symptoms persist or worsen after a few days of use.

What does Diclofenac Sodium interact with?

No significant drug interactions are reported with Voltarol Ophtha eye drops. However, inform your healthcare provider about all medications you are using, especially other eye drops or ointments.
