Overview

Lubistar 0.5% Eye Drop 10ML is an ophthalmic lubricant formulated with Carboxymethylcellulose Sodium 0.5%, an artificial tear substitute that helps relieve symptoms associated with dry eye syndrome. It supplements the natural tear film by forming a protective lubricating layer over the surface of the eye, thereby reducing irritation and improving eye comfort.

 

Dry eyes can occur due to aging, prolonged use of digital devices, environmental pollutants, air-conditioned environments, contact lens wear, certain medications, or reduced tear production. Lubistar Eye Drop helps restore moisture, minimize friction during blinking, and soothe symptoms such as burning sensation, itching, redness, grittiness, eye fatigue, and excessive watering caused by dryness.

 

The eye drops are suitable for regular use as advised by a healthcare professional and can significantly improve comfort during daily activities such as reading, driving, computer work, and watching television. They are intended for ophthalmic use only and should not be injected or swallowed.

How This Medicine Works

Lubistar Eye Drop contains Carboxymethylcellulose Sodium, an artificial tear substitute that mimics natural tears. It binds water molecules and forms a lubricating protective layer over the cornea and conjunctiva. This helps retain moisture, reduce evaporation of tears, decrease friction during blinking, and relieve symptoms associated with dry eyes.
