Based on the individual homoeopathic constituents of Oculoheel, therapeutical possibilities result for its application as internal medication for the stimulation of the body’s own defenses in conjunctivitis acuta and chronica as well as in other eye diseases (blepharitis, dacrocystitis and other inflammatory conditions of irritation of the front portion of the eye).

Oculoheel has also proved beneficial for blepharitis ciliaris, hordeolums, chalazions (in addition to Mercurius-Heel S, and possibly Traumeel S or Cruroheel S). For iritis and glaucoma, as well as for keratitis parenchymatosa, pannus, ulcera corneae and scleritis, Oculoheel is administered in addition to other suitable Heel biotherapeutical agents, e.g. Kalmia-Injeel (forte) S for iritis. For glaucoma, Veratrum-Homaccord and Mercurius praecipitatus ruber-Injeel forte S, orally and s.c., i.v., as well as Cruroheel S additionally, have proved advantageous, possibly also Arsuraneel. For scleritis, Mercurius solubilis Hahnemanni-Injeel (forte S), possibly the other Mercurius preparations are to be preferred. In any case, the general anti-inflammatory and detoxicating action of Oculoheel, specifically intended for the treatment of the eyes, is of significance in all eye therapy, including after eye operations (in addition to  Traumeel S liquid and Traumeel S ointment).

The dosage is adjusted according to the disease, the clinical picture and the stage of the illness: 1 tablet dissolved on the tongue 3 times daily; in acute disorders and inflammatory processes, massive initial-dose therapy: 1 tablet every 15 minutes.
