Can I use Dynamiclear on the eyes?
When infections occur on the eye the treatment can be more complicated because of the delicate nature of the area. Dynamiclear cannot be used to treat ocular conditions of any kind. Contact with the eyes must be avoided. We DO NOT recommend the use of Dynamiclear (or any topical antiviral product) in the eyes because of the complications that could occur with such an application. Anti-viral drugs, particularly orally administered Acyclovir according to one study, can help reduce recurrent infections of ocular herpes. Golden Seal (Hydrastis canadensis) Eye Ointment can be beneficial in relieving and reducing symptoms of herpes in the eye and is often available through local pharmacies or selected health care stores. Golden seal root is a rapidly effective, antibiotic, anti-inflammatory, healing tonic and is often recommended for a variety of inflamed mucous membranes conditions. It is frequently used to support damaged or infected tissues including the eyes, mouth and throat.
