Ophthacare is a clinically-formulated, herbal eye drop solution designed to address a spectrum of ocular surface disorders and inflammatory conditions. Developed through rigorous pharmacological research, it combines a synergistic blend of natural extracts known for their anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and soothing properties. This ophthalmic preparation is engineered to provide rapid symptomatic relief while supporting the eye’s natural healing processes, making it a trusted choice for both acute episodes and chronic management of eye discomfort. Its efficacy is backed by a foundation in both traditional medicinal principles and modern therapeutic standards.

Features

• Multi-Herbal Formulation: Contains purified extracts of Carum copticum, Terminalia chebula, Curcuma longa, Ocimum sanctum, and Cedrus deodara.
• Potent Anti-inflammatory Action: Targets key pathways in the ocular inflammatory cascade to reduce redness, swelling, and irritation.
• Antimicrobial Properties: Provides a broad-spectrum defense against common bacterial and viral pathogens that can cause or exacerbate eye infections.
• Antioxidant-Rich Composition: Helps neutralize free radicals and oxidative stress at the corneal surface, protecting delicate ocular tissues.
• Preservative-Free Options Available: Minimizes risk of hypersensitivity reactions or toxic effects associated with long-term preservative use.
• pH-Balanced & Isotonic: Formulated to match the natural pH and osmotic pressure of human tears, ensuring comfort upon instillation and maximizing corneal contact time.
• Sterile Manufacturing: Produced under aseptic conditions compliant with international pharmaceutical standards (cGMP).

Benefits

• Rapid Relief from Discomfort: Quickly alleviates symptoms of itching, burning, and grittiness associated with dry eye syndrome and allergic conjunctivitis.
• Reduces Inflammatory markers: Clinically shown to decrease conjunctival hyperemia and edema, promoting a clearer, whiter appearance of the eyes.
• Supports Natural Tear Film Stability: Enhances the lipid and aqueous layers of the tear film, reducing evaporation and improving ocular surface lubrication.
• Accelerates Epithelial Healing: Encourages regeneration of corneal and conjunctival cells following minor abrasions or post-surgical procedures.
• Prevents Secondary Infections: Creates an unfavorable environment for pathogen colonization, reducing the risk of superinfection in vulnerable eyes.
• Safe for Long-Term Use: With its herbal profile and absence of steroids, it is suitable for chronic conditions requiring sustained management without significant risk of iatrogenic side effects like cataracts or glaucoma.

Common use

Ophthacare is indicated for the symptomatic management and adjunct treatment of a variety of inflammatory and infectious ocular conditions. Its primary use is in cases of allergic conjunctivitis, where it helps mitigate the histamine-mediated response that causes itching and redness. It is also effectively employed in the treatment of viral conjunctivitis, providing soothing relief while the body’s immune system addresses the underlying infection. For patients suffering from dry eye disease, whether due to environmental factors, screen use, or meibomian gland dysfunction, Ophthacare acts as a lubricant and anti-inflammatory agent, improving comfort and visual quality. It is further utilized in the management of blepharitis, helping to reduce lid margin inflammation and crust formation. Post-operatively, it can be used to comfort eyes after cataract or refractive surgery, minimizing inflammation and supporting epithelial integrity. Its antimicrobial properties also make it a supportive therapy in bacterial conjunctivitis, though it should not replace prescribed antibiotics in confirmed bacterial cases without consulting an ophthalmologist.

Dosage and direction

For general use and maintenance: Instill one to two drops into the affected eye(s) two to three times daily. In cases of acute inflammation or significant discomfort, the frequency may be increased to every three to four hours, not to exceed six instillations per day, unless specifically directed by a healthcare provider.

Administration Technique:

1. Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water.
2. Tilt the head backward and gently pull down the lower eyelid to form a small pouch.
3. Hold the dropper close to the eye without touching the eyelid, lashes, or any surface to avoid contamination.
4. Squeeze the prescribed number of drops into the pouch formed by the lower lid.
5. Release the eyelid and gently close the eye for 1-2 minutes. Applying light pressure to the nasolacrimal duct (the inner corner of the eye near the nose) can help minimize systemic absorption.
6. If using more than one type of eye drop, wait at least 5-10 minutes between applications. Ointments should always be applied last.
7. Recap the bottle immediately after use.

The duration of treatment depends on the condition being treated. For allergic episodes, use may be limited to the allergy season. For chronic dry eye, long-term use is typical. Always follow the specific duration advised by your eye care professional.

Precautions

• Sterility: Do not touch the dropper tip to any surface, including the eye, to prevent contamination. If the tip becomes contaminated, it can introduce pathogens into the solution, leading to serious eye infections.
• Contact Lenses: Remove soft contact lenses prior to instillation and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them. Some components of the formulation may bind to the lens material.
• Vision Blurring: Temporary blurring of vision may occur immediately after instillation. Do not drive or operate machinery until vision has cleared completely.
• Systemic Conditions: Inform your doctor if you have any other medical conditions, especially autoimmune disorders or other chronic illnesses.
• Pregnancy and Lactation: While the herbal ingredients are generally considered safe, consult your physician before using Ophthacare if you are pregnant, planning to become pregnant, or are breastfeeding.
• Pediatric Use: Use in children should be supervised by an adult to ensure proper administration and should only be done under the guidance of a pediatric ophthalmologist or physician.
• Ongoing Monitoring: If symptoms worsen or do not improve after 72 hours of use, discontinue the product and consult an eye care specialist promptly.

Contraindications

Ophthacare is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to any of its herbal ingredients (Carum copticum, Terminalia chebula, Curcuma longa, Ocimum sanctum, Cedrus deodara). A history of allergic reactions to plants in the Lamiaceae (mint) or Zingiberaceae (ginger) families should warrant caution and likely avoidance. It is also contraindicated for use in serious, sight-threatening infections like fungal keratitis or endophthalmitis, where immediate, potent antibiotic or antifungal therapy is required. It should not be used as a monotherapy for confirmed bacterial conjunctivitis without concomitant antibiotic treatment as directed by a physician. Its use is contraindicated in the immediate post-operative period of certain surgeries if the surgeon advises against any topical medication other than those prescribed.

Possible side effect

Ophthacare is generally well-tolerated due to its natural composition. However, as with any ophthalmic preparation, some individuals may experience side effects, typically mild and transient.

• Common (≥1/100): Temporary mild stinging or burning upon instillation; transient blurring of vision; a sensation of warmth in the eye.
• Uncommon (≥1/1000, <1/100): Mild allergic reactions such as increased redness, itching, or swelling of the eyelids or conjunctiva (chemosis).
• Rare (<1/1000): Hypersensitivity reactions including rash, urticaria (hives), or facial swelling. Discontinuation is advised if any of these occur.
• Very Rare: No serious systemic side effects have been reported with proper topical ocular use. However, any persistent discomfort, severe pain, or changes in vision should be evaluated by a doctor immediately.

Drug interaction

Formal drug interaction studies for this specific herbal formulation are limited. However, potential interactions should be considered based on the pharmacological actions of its constituents.

• Topical Medications: When used concurrently with other eye drops, the efficacy of either product may be altered due to dilution or changes in corneal contact time. Always maintain a 5-10 minute interval between different eye medications.
• Anticoagulants/Antiplatelets (e.g., Warfarin, Aspirin): Curcuma longa (Turmeric) has known mild anticoagulant properties. While systemic absorption from eye drops is minimal, patients on such medications should be monitored, though the risk is considered very low.
• Diabetes Medication: Some herbs may influence blood glucose levels. Diabetic patients should monitor their blood sugar levels closely when initiating therapy, though, again, systemic exposure is negligible.
• Immunosuppressants: Given its immunomodulatory potential, theoretically, it could interact with systemic immunosuppressive therapy, but this is highly unlikely with topical use. It is imperative to inform your healthcare provider of all medications you are taking, including prescription, over-the-counter, vitamins, and herbal supplements.

Missed dose

If you miss a dose of Ophthacare, instill it as soon as you remember. However, if it is almost time for your next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose and resume your regular dosing schedule. Do not instil a double dose to make up for a missed one. Maintaining a consistent schedule optimizes therapeutic levels on the ocular surface, but the occasional missed dose is not typically critical for overall efficacy in management of chronic conditions.

Overdose

Topical ocular overdose is unlikely to cause serious systemic effects due to minimal absorption. Instilling an excessive number of drops at one time will primarily result in increased overflow from the eye, temporary blurring, and possibly heightened local irritation (stinging, redness). If a large volume of the solution is accidentally ingested, seek medical attention or contact a poison control center immediately, though the risk of toxicity is low. Treatment would be supportive and symptomatic.

Storage

Store Ophthacare at room temperature (15°C to 30°C or 59°F to 86°F). Protect from direct sunlight and excessive heat, as this can degrade the active herbal compounds. Do not freeze the solution. Keep the bottle tightly closed when not in use to prevent contamination and evaporation. Once the seal is broken, the product should typically be used within 28 days, unless the packaging specifies otherwise, to ensure sterility and potency. Always check the expiration date on the packaging and do not use the product beyond this date.
