Medicine Description relivatear
relivatear eye drops 15 ml is a medication that combines glycerin and sodium carboxymethylcellulose, acting primarily as a lubricant to relieve dryness in the eyes. Glycerin is a hygroscopic agent that attracts moisture from the environment, enhancing the hydration of the ocular surface. Sodium carboxymethylcellulose, a cellulose derivative, provides a viscous, protective layer over the eye, promoting comfort and alleviating irritation by reducing friction during eye movements. Together, these components ensure that the ocular surface remains moist, thereby improving overall eye health and comfort.
