Hello, Thanks for your query on Lybrate "As" per your clinical history is concerned do use this medication as per your Doctors advice and one times overdose will not be any problem at all and it will resolve soon so no further medication is needed at all. Do follow few preventive steps like this - 1)Have your eyes checked every month. Do this regularly even if you see well. 2)Control chronic health conditions. Certain conditions, such as diabetes and high blood pressure, can affect your vision if you don't receive proper treatment. 3)Protect your eyes from the sun. Wear sunglasses that block ultraviolet (UV) radiation. 4)Prevent eye injuries. Wear protective eyewear when doing certain things, such as playing sports, mowing the lawn, painting or using other products with toxic fumes. 5)Eat healthy foods. Try to eat plenty of fruits, leafy greens, and other vegetables. And studies show that your eyes benefit if you also include in your diet fish high in omega-3 fatty acids, such as tuna and salmon. 6)Don't smoke. Just as smoking isn't good for the rest of your body, smoking can adversely affect your eye health as well. 7)Use the right corrective lenses. The right lenses optimize your vision. Having regular exams will ensure that your prescription is correct. Reduce eyestrain. Look away from your computer or near-task work, including reading, every 20 minutes. 8)Recognize symptoms. You may have a serious medical problem if you have a sudden loss of vision in one eye, experience sudden hazy or blurred vision, or see flashes of light, black spots, or halos around lights. These may indicate certain conditions, such as glaucoma, stroke, or a retinal tear or detachment. See your doctor immediately if you experience any of these symptoms. Hope that helps
