About This Medication

# VEVYE Access for All Patient Guide: How to Get VEVYE at Low or No Cost This guide explains the **VEVYE Access for All** program from **Harrow**, helping eligible patients access **VEVYE (cyclosporine ophthalmic solution)**—an eye drop prescription for dry eye disease—at little or no cost. VEVYE works as an immunomodulator to increase tear production, offering relief from chronic dry eyes.[1][2] ## About VEVYE (Cyclosporine Ophthalmic Solution) **VEVYE** is a prescription eye drop emulsion containing cyclosporine, used to treat dry eye disease by boosting natural tear production. Unlike artificial tears, it addresses the root cause by modulating the immune response in the eyes.[1][2] It's typically dosed as **one drop in each affected eye twice daily, about 12 hours apart**.[1][2][3] ### How to Use VEVYE Safely 1. Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water.[1][2][3] 2. For VEVYE emulsion, gently rotate the vial (do not shake) until the liquid looks white.[1][2] 3. Tilt head back, pull down lower eyelid to form a pocket. 4. Instill one drop without touching the tip to your eye or any surface.[1][2][3] 5. Close eyes gently, press inner corner for 1-2 minutes, then blink.[1][2][3] 6. Wait 10-15 minutes before contacts or other eye products.[1][3] **Common side effects** include eye irritation, burning, stinging (8%), blurred vision (3%), or itching. Avoid driving if vision blurs. Keep the bottle tip clean to prevent infection.[3] Always follow your doctor's instructions. ## Who Qualifies for VEVYE Access for All?
