Serum eyedrops (SED)

This video will provide you with important information about storing, handling, and using your serum eyedrops.

Keeping serum eyedrops cold

Serum eyedrops have a shelf life of 12 months when stored frozen. Once thawed, vials need to be refrigerated. This can be a problem when you need to use your eyedrops away from home. A cooler bag is useful in these instances. 

An example of a suitable product is the Coolpod Yoghurt Cooler Bag which can maintain vials for a maximum of 4hrs and 45mins when used in accordance with manufacturer recommendations.  For more information visit the Coolpod website.

There are other similar brands and products available.
