Acupat Ophthalmic Solution is a combination of two medicines: Ketorolac and Olopatadine, which relieves eye itching/discomfort caused by seasonal allergies. Ketorolac is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID). It works by blocking the release of certain chemical messengers that cause pain and inflammation (redness and swelling) in the eye. Olopatadine is an antiallergic which blocks the action of certain chemical messengers responsible for red, itchy, watery eyes.
If you miss a dose of Acupat Ophthalmic Solution, skip it and continue with your normal schedule. Do not double the dose.
Acupat Ophthalmic Solution is prescribed for the treatment of allergic conjunctivitis.

Apply pressure on the corner of the eye (close to the nose) for about 1 minute, immediately after putting the medication. This will prevent the medication from draining out. Try not to blink or rub your eye.
