White soft paraffin + Liquid paraffin + Wool alcohol
Indications
White soft paraffin + Liquid paraffin + Wool alcohol eye ointment is used for dry eye, and it's especially useful at night because it stays in the eye longer than drops do. It is also used as adjunctive therapy to lubricate and protect the eye in conditions such as exposure keratitis, decreased corneal sensitivity, recurrent corneal erosions, keratitis sicca, and ophthalmic surgery.
⚠️ Always consult a registered physician before taking any medicine.
Pharmacology
White soft paraffin, Liquid paraffin and Wool alcohol eye ointment forms a clear, lubricating and moistening film over the surface of the eyeball. It gives soothing relief from the symptoms of dry eyes, such as soreness, irritation or a gritty feeling. These symptoms may come from the eye not making enough tears to stay moist, or from things like certain medical conditions or treatment. The ointment also helps protect the eyeball, so it can be useful for people who suffer from recurrent corneal epithelial erosion.
