SODIUM CARBOXYMETHYLCELLULOSE+STABILIZED OXYCHLORO COMPLEX belongs to the class of 'ophthalmic lubricants' that treat dry eyes. A dry eye is a disorder of the tear film of the eye that leads to the deficiency or extreme evaporation of the tears causing damage to the ocular surface.
SODIUM CARBOXYMETHYLCELLULOSE+STABILIZED OXYCHLORO COMPLEX is composed of Sodium Carboxymethylcellulose and Stabilized Oxychloro complex. Sodium Carboxymethylcellulose is a tear substitute and a lubricant that keeps the eyes moist and helps protect the eyes from infection. It also relieves foreign body sensations, burning, and itching of the eyes. Stabilized Oxychloro complex is an antimicrobial preservative.

Dry eyes: Dry eye is a disorder of the tear film of the eye that leads to the deficiency of tears or extreme evaporation of the tears. This tearing instability leads to inflammation and damage to the eye surface.

Symptoms include a burning sensation, sensitivity to light, eye redness, a sensation of having something in your eyes, watery eyes, and blurred vision.
