Upneeq® is the only FDA-approved prescription eyedrop for acquired ptosis (low-lying lids) that lifts your upper eyelids to open your eyes.

Size

0.3mL vials

45 single-use vials

What it does

UPNEEQ® is a prescription eye drop that temporarily improves droopy eyelids, or ptosis, with a single daily dose. While you won’t get the more dramatic results you can expect from eyelid lift surgery, patients see an average of about 1 mm of lift in their upper eyelid after the first use—just enough to make a noticeable difference.

Doctor\'s Tips

Apply Upneeq to your affected eye(s) in 2 easy steps.

Step 1: Cut open the foil wrapper and remove single-use vial

Step 2: Apply one drop of Upneeq in each affected eye as directed, once a day

• Do not let the tip of the vial touch your eye or any other surface


• Vials should not be reused after opening and should be thrown away after applying drop(s)

If you wear contact lenses, remove them before applying Upneeq drops.  You may put them back in 15 minutes after applying Upneeq.

If more than one topical ophthalmic drub is being used, the drugs should be administered at least 15 minutes between applications.
