Clarastil eye drops 5 ml. vial

Description

Clarastil is an aqueous sterile solution of 0.3% carboxymethylcellulose that interacts with the tissues of the eye and has a protective, eutrophin, moisturizing and softening effect. Due to the antioxidant properties of the components and the ability to counteract free radicals, this medical device protects the eye tissues (lens, cornea, conjunctiva) from the effects of oxidative stress that occurs due to adverse environmental factors (contact lens injury, solar radiation, smoke, dust, air conditioning, computer radiation) and is a trigger for the development of a number of eye diseases, in particular cataracts. The saline solution of the medical device only contacts the surface of the eye for a few seconds, producing a transient effect. Due to the presence of glycerol, water is diffused into the eye tissue (a moisturizing effect), followed by the formation of a thin water film on the surface of the rohivkia with the involvement of carboxymethylcellulose, which is embedded in the cellulose polymer grid. Thus, a hydrogel film with viscoelastic properties is formed. In a medical product, the concentration of carboxymethylcellulose (0.3%) is carefully selected to obtain hydrogel rheological characteristics identical to tear fluid and good adhesion on the outer shell of the eye, providing it with protective, eutrophic, moisturizing and softening properties without the effect of blurring vision.

N-acetylcarnosine, available as a component of drops, does not have any specific pharmacological action, but due to its antioxidant properties and ability to counteract free radicals, it is an oxidase in itself and protects the eye tissues (lens, cornea, conjunctiva) from damage to cellular lipid peroxidases, which is observed in cataracts.

Physical and chemical properties: completely transparent, mixes with water and tear fluid in any proportions, does not form insoluble precipitates with metal salts and organic substances present in the tear fluid, has a pH and osmolarity, which is well combined with the eye tissues and tear fluid, so that the drops have a good tolerance.
