Before using Bromday, tell your doctor if you have asthma, diabetes, arthritis, dry eye syndrome, a bleeding disorder, if you have had more than one eye surgery recently, or if you have an allergy to sulfites, aspirin, or other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).
Bromday is usually given as 1 drop in each affected eye once daily for 14 days, starting 1 day before your surgery.

Stop using Bromday and call your doctor at once if you have any change in your vision, eye redness or bleeding, eye pain or swelling, severe eye discomfort, increased tears, increased sensitivity to light, feeling like something is in your eye, or slow healing after your eye surgery. Do not use Bromday while wearing contact lenses.
