Cyclosporine Ophthalmic Emulsion 0.05% (brand name Restasis) is a prescription eye drop that helps increase natural tear production. It is used for chronic dry eye disease when tear production is reduced due to inflammation of the eye, a condition known as keratoconjunctivitis sicca. By calming inflammation on the eye's surface, it may help the eyes produce more of their own tears over time.

Cyclosporine Ophth. Emulsion 0.05%
Topical calcineurin inhibitor eye drops for chronic dry eye disease and keratoconjunctivitis sicca
What Cyclosporine Ophth. Emulsion 0.05% Treats
What is Cyclosporine Ophth. Emulsion 0.05%?
Cyclosporine Ophthalmic Emulsion 0.05%, sold under the brand name Restasis, is a prescription eye drop containing cyclosporine, a calcineurin inhibitor immunomodulator. It is FDA-approved to increase tear production in patients whose tear production is presumed to be suppressed due to ocular inflammation associated with keratoconjunctivitis sicca (chronic dry eye). Unlike artificial tears, which provide temporary lubrication, cyclosporine works by reducing inflammation on the eye's surface so the eyes can produce more natural tears. It typically takes several weeks to months of consistent use to notice an effect.
What it treats
- Chronic dry eye disease
- Keratoconjunctivitis sicca
- Reduced tear production due to ocular inflammation
- Dry eye not adequately relieved by artificial tears alone
How to Use Cyclosporine Ophth. Emulsion 0.05%
- Instill 1 drop in each eye twice daily, approximately 12 hours apart.
- Use one single-use vial per dose; discard vial immediately after use.
- May be used with artificial tears; allow a 15-minute interval between products.
Your prescriber will determine the dose and duration that are right for you. Always follow the directions on your prescription label.

Medical Review & Sources
Cyclosporine Ophth. Emulsion 0.05% FAQ
What is Cyclosporine Ophthalmic Emulsion 0.05% used for?
It is FDA-approved to increase tear production in people whose tear production is reduced due to ocular inflammation associated with keratoconjunctivitis sicca (chronic dry eye). It works by reducing inflammation on the surface of the eye rather than simply lubricating it.
Do I need a prescription for Restasis?
Yes, cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion is a prescription medication in the United States. A licensed healthcare provider must evaluate your condition and issue a valid prescription before the pharmacy can dispense it.
How long does it take Restasis to work?
Many patients need several weeks to months of consistent twice-daily use before noticing an improvement in tear production. In clinical trials, increased tear production was observed at six months of treatment. Continue using it as prescribed even if results are gradual.
Can I use artificial tears with cyclosporine eye drops?
Yes, artificial tears may be used alongside cyclosporine ophthalmic emulsion. Allow at least a 15-minute interval between instilling the two products so each can work properly.
Can I wear contact lenses while using Restasis?
Remove contact lenses before instilling the drops, since reduced tear production is generally a concern for lens wearers. Lenses may be reinserted 15 minutes after administration if your eye care provider has approved contact lens use.
How does ordering and shipping work?
After you place your order, a licensed provider or pharmacist reviews your prescription and health information. Once verified, your medication is dispensed by a licensed U.S. pharmacy and shipped in secure, discreet packaging to your address.
What are the most common side effects of Restasis?
The most common side effect is a temporary burning sensation in the eye after instillation. Other reported effects include eye redness, tearing, discharge, stinging, blurred vision, and a foreign body sensation. Contact your provider if side effects are severe or persistent.
