Eye symptoms that need a doctor, not a drop

Some eye problems are for an eye doctor, and a few are emergencies. Quell’s label and terms draw those lines clearly, and they apply to any drop you use.

Emergencies

Sudden vision loss, eye pain, or an eye injury: seek emergency care at once. For a medical emergency, call your local emergency number.

Stop use and ask a doctor

Stop use and ask a doctor if you feel eye pain or changes in your vision, if irritation or redness continues, or if the condition worsens or persists for 72 hours.

Outside what the label covers

Quell’s Uses section reads: For use as a protectant against further irritation or to relieve dryness of the eye. If what you are experiencing doesn’t fit that description, or you don’t know what it is, an eye exam is how to find out.

Not medical advice

This site doesn’t provide medical advice, and using Quell doesn’t create a doctor-patient relationship, as the terms say.

Before the appointment

Jot down when the symptoms started, what makes them better or worse, and every product you have put in your eyes, with how often. Those are the questions an eye doctor will ask first, and Quell’s Drug Facts page answers the last one in full.
