Catarest Eye Drops 10ml

Catarest Eye Drops 10ml is used for supporting eye health for individuals dealing with early cataract formation and those who have undergone cataract surgery. It is an ophthalmic solution. It is designed to delay cataractogenesis, help improve vision in the early stages of cataracts, and maintain the normal nutrition of the lens. The solution is also beneficial for managing posterior capsular opacification (PCO) after cataract surgery, which can occur due to clouding behind the lens. These eye drops contain key minerals such as potassium iodide, sodium chloride, and calcium chloride, which work synergistically to improve eye health and maintain the clarity of the lens. The eye drops are for external use only and should be used as directed by a physician. It is suitable for pre- and post-operative care and helps manage lens opacity and posterior capsule opacification (PCO). 

• Potassium Iodide (3.3% W/V): Potassium iodide helps manage the formation of cataracts by providing essential iodine. Iodine plays a role in the eye's antioxidant defence mechanism, protecting the lens from oxidative damage and maintaining its transparency.
   
• Sodium Chloride (0.83% W/V): Sodium chloride helps maintain proper osmotic balance and hydration in the eye, which is essential for the overall health of ocular tissues. It also helps alleviate dryness and irritation, contributing to the clarity and moisture of the lens.
   
• Calcium Chloride (1% W/V): Calcium chloride provides the necessary calcium for lens cell function and helps maintain cellular integrity. It supports the lens structure, manages clouding, and improves the resilience of lens tissues against damage.
   
• Other Ingredients: Phenylmercuric Nitrate IP ..... 0.001% w/v (as preservative), Sterile aqueous base ..... q.s.

• Delays Cataract Formation: Catarest Eye drops may help delay cataract onset by supplying key minerals like potassium and calcium that support lens health. These minerals might help reduce oxidative damage to the lens, which is a significant factor in cataract progression. They may slow down the clouding of the lens, preserving vision longer.
   
• Improves Vision in Early Cataracts: In the early stages of cataract development, this eye drop might help improve vision by supporting lens nutrition. The drops may reduce clouding and manage further lens degeneration, allowing for clearer sight. This may be especially helpful for those looking to manage mild cataract symptoms.
   
• Manages Posterior Capsular Opacification: These drops may help manage posterior capsular opacification (PCO), a complication that can occur after cataract surgery. Keeping the back of the lens clear might help maintain post-surgery vision quality, which may reduce the chances of vision becoming cloudy again due to PCO.
   
• Maintains Lens Nutrition: With minerals like potassium and calcium, these eye drops might help maintain the health and nutrition of the lens. This may manage the degeneration and clouding of the lens over time, promoting long-term clarity. Proper lens nutrition is essential for avoiding cataract progression.
   
• Balances Mineral Levels in the Eye: The eye drops may help manage mineral imbalances in the eye, including sodium, potassium, and calcium. By maintaining these mineral levels, the drops might support healthy ocular tissues and fluid imbalances, which can be crucial in managing further lens issues and maintaining eye health.
