Eye Drops
Eye drops help keep your eyes moist and comfortable. But can you use them before an MRI?
Some eye drops have metals which can react to MRI's magnets. Always check the ingredients!
Before you have an MRI, ask your doctor if you can use your usual eye drops.
If your eye drops contain metals, your doctor might ask you to skip them before the scan.
Your doctor can suggest other eye drops that are safe to use before an MRI.
On the day of your MRI, follow your doctor’s advice about using eye drops.
If you can't use your drops, there are other ways to keep your eyes comfortable.
During the MRI, keep your eyes closed and think of a happy place!
