Key steps for preparing and injecting OcuClick®

Below you will find the key steps that must be followed when preparing for intravitreal injection using OcuClick.

Always consult the OcuClick instructions for use (IFU) card
, which provides more detail for each step.

Three key points in using OcuClick

Snap off the syringe cap

Do not twist it off.

Push to prime and set to dose

Eliminate all bubbles and expel excess drug by slowly depressing the plunger rod until it stops. Twist the end of the plunger rod 90 degrees clockwise or counterclockwise until the guide of the plunger rod aligns with the slot. You may hear a click.

Administer the injection

Inject the solution by pushing in the plunger rod until it stops, i.e. until the guide is completely within the slot.

These instructions are not complete. For full instructions, please refer to the EYLEA 8mg or 114.3 mg/mL (pre-filled syringe) Summary of Product Characteristics and appropriate prescribing information below.

It is important to handle the syringe using aseptic technique. Inspect the syringe visually before use for any foreign particulate matter and/or unusual colour (the solution can be pale yellow, which is normal) or any variation in physical appearance. If any of these are observed, do not use the product.

Key steps for preparing and injecting OcuClick

Steps 1 to 9

1. Prepare

When ready to administer EYLEA 8mg, open the carton and remove the blister pack. Carefully peel open the blister pack to ensure the sterility of its contents. Keep the syringe in the sterile tray until you are ready to attach the injection needle. Use aseptic technique to carry out steps 2-9.

2. Remove syringe

Remove the syringe from the sterilised blister pack.

3. Inspect syringe and solution for injection

Do not use the pre-filled syringe if particulates, cloudiness, or discolouration are visible.

Do not use if any part of the pre-filled syringe is damaged or loose, or if the syringe cap is detached from the Luer-lock.

4. Snap off syringe cap

Snap off (do not twist off) the syringe cap by holding the syringe in one hand and the syringe cap with the thumb and forefinger of the other hand.

Do not pull back on the plunger rod.

5. Attach 30 G needle

Firmly twist the 30 G x 1/2 inch injection needle onto the Luer-lock syringe tip.

Use of a smaller gauge needle (less than 30 G) is not advised due to risk of increased injection force.

6. Dislodge air bubbles

Holding the syringe with the needle pointing up, check the solution for bubbles. If there are bubbles, gently tap the syringe with your finger until the bubbles rise to the top.

7. Expel air and excess volume to prime

The syringe does not have a dose line because it is designed to set the dose mechanically.

Priming and setting the dose must be done using the following steps.

To eliminate all bubbles and to expel excess drug, slowly depress the plunger rod until it stops, i.e. when the guide on the plunger rod reaches the finger grip.

8. Set to dose

Turn the end of the plunger rod 90 degrees clockwise or counterclockwise until the guide of the plunger rod aligns with the slot. You may hear or feel a

click.

The dose of EYLEA 8mg is now set and ready for injection.

Do not push the plunger rod before insertion into the eye.

When ready to administer EYLEA 8mg, remove the plastic needle shield.

9. Administer the injection

Insert the needle into the ocular injection site.

Inject the solution by pushing in the plunger rod until it stops, i.e. until the guide is completely within the slot. Do not apply additional pressure once the guide is within the slot. It is normal to see a small amount of residual solution left in the syringer after the injection.

The pre-filled syringe is for single dose administration and single use only. After injection, discard the use syringe into a sharps container.
