Composition
Each ml contains Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose 0.3% w/v, Glycerine 0.2% w/v, and Dextran 70 0.1% w/v Ophthalmic Solution.
Features / Experimentation
Lacrisol Eye Drops combine Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC), Glycerine, and Dextran 70 to provide long-lasting ocular lubrication and protection. The formulation acts as a tear substitute and ocular demulcent, relieving symptoms of eye irritation and dryness while also serving as an irrigation solution during ophthalmic surgical procedures involving ocular perfusion.
Indications
Lacrisol Eye Drops are indicated as a tear substitute and ocular demulcent for the relief of eye irritation and as an irrigation solution during surgical procedures involving perfusion of the eye.
Pharmacodynamics
Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose (HPMC) is a chemically modified cellulose polymer that possesses viscoelastic and lubricating properties without known receptor affinity or pharmacological activity. It forms a protective film over the ocular surface, helping retain moisture and reduce friction during blinking. Glycerine acts as a humectant to maintain hydration of the ocular surface, while Dextran 70 enhances tear film stability and lubrication. Together, these ingredients provide symptomatic relief from ocular irritation and support ocular surface protection during surgical procedures.
Dosage and administration
Instill one drop into the affected eye(s) three times daily, or as directed by the physician.
Contraindications
Lacrisol Eye Drops are contraindicated in patients with known hypersensitivity to Hydroxypropyl Methylcellulose, Glycerine, Dextran 70, or any component of the formulation.
