Dextran 70 0.1% + Hypromellose 0.3% Eye prep is an artificial tear used for the treatment of dry eyes and eye irritation.
Indications
- Dry eye
- Burning and irritation of the eye
- Corneal protection in keratoconjunctivitis
Pharmacology
Dextran & Hypromellose combination eye drops acts like natural tears, providing smooth relief to dry, itchy, burning and irritated eyes. Hypromellose promotes corneal wetting by stabilizing and thickening the precorneal tear film and prolonging the tear film breakup time. Dextran produces expansion of plasma volume, reduces blood viscosity and inhibits sludging of red blood cells.
