UPNEEQ®

We love how UPNEEQ® opens up and brightens eyes in minutes!

​

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

​

What is UPNEEQ®:

In the past, lifting the eyelids required a blepharoplasty (eyelid lift). The FDA has approved UPNEEQ®, the first prescription eye  drop to treat acquired ptosis. Ptosis is the medical term for drooping  eyelids and acquired means you developed it over time. UPNEEQ®  gives you a subtle lift that can make a noticeable difference. 

​

How Fast Does UPNEEQ® Work?

For most people, UPNEEQ® will start working within five minutes  and last up to 8 hours.  

 

Am I a Good Candidate for UPNEEQ®?

If you have sagging upper eyelids and want a natural-looking solution, you may be a good  candidate for UPNEEQ®. This prescription medication treats all types of acquired ptosis.

 

Is UPNEEQ® Safe? 

UPNEEQ® is an artificial tear that uses no preservatives. It is very safe and almost anyone  can use it. After applying the drops, you should wait a minute or two for your vision to clear  before driving or similar activities. Most people will have clear vision within a few  minutes of the application. You should not have any discomfort or downtime after using  UPNEEQ®. About 1% of people may experience redness or blurred vision.

 

How do I use UPNEEQ®? 

UPNEEQ® comes in single-use vials to minimize the risk of contamination. Ensure the  vial tip does not touch your eyes or surfaces to avoid contaminating the drops. Contact lens  wearers will need to wait 15 minutes before putting in their contacts or other eye solutions.
