Description
Sterile ophthalmic solution containing 0.4% high molecular weight biotechnologically derived hyaluronic acid sodium salt. Hyaluronic acid sodium salt is a mucopolysaccharide that restores tear film balance in cases of tear film alterations. Its 0.4% concentration provides greater hydration with prolonged action.
Irilens 0.4% eye drops is a lubricating and hydrating ophthalmic solution indicated in all cases of dry eye disorders such as the use of contact lenses, environmental factors (sun, wind, cold, smoky rooms, rooms with dry air produced by heating or air conditioning systems), prolonged use of a personal computer, advanced age, the use of medications (antidepressants, anxiolytics, hormones and antihistamines), and eye surgery.
The formulation of Irilens 0.4% eye drops in a multi-dose bottle contains sodium chlorite as a preservative, which has an effective antimicrobial action inside the container, blocking bacterial proliferation and ensuring better tolerability of the product as it belongs to the category of "disappearing preservatives" which, once instilled into the eye, decompose.
In fact, after application, sodium chloride converts into oxygen, which evaporates, and sodium chloride, which becomes part of the solution and has no effect. Unlike other preservatives, this component does not remain in the eye as such, preventing the adverse effects generally associated with the use of conventional preservatives.
It can also be used with all types of contact lenses worn.

Components
