Benefits
Sodium Hyaluronate is primarily used in the treatment of dry eyes. It is also helpful for:
- Providing relief from burning, irritation, and discomfort caused by dry eye syndrome.
- Stabilizing and protecting the tear film to maintain proper eye lubrication.

How It Works
Sodium Hyaluronate is a lubricant that acts as an artificial tear substitute. It:
- Moistens the eyes, forming a protective layer over the cornea.
- Stabilizes the natural tear film, preventing evaporation and maintaining hydration.
- Reduces discomfort by mimicking natural tears, aiding in eye surface repair and relief.

- Temporary Blurred Vision: Clears quickly after use.
- Stinging or Burning Sensation: Typically lasts 1â2 minutes post-application.
- Eye Redness or Irritation: Rare but possible; notify your doctor if persistent.
