Polyethylene Glycol 400 and Propylene Glycol – Dual Action Lubricating Eye Drops
Polyethylene Glycol 400 and Propylene Glycol Eye Drops are advanced lubricating eye drops formulated to provide fast and long-lasting relief from dry eye symptoms. This dual-action combination is widely recommended by ophthalmologists for effective tear film stabilization and ocular surface protection.
These eye drops are specially designed to mimic natural tears and are highly effective for managing dryness, irritation, burning sensation, and discomfort caused by environmental factors, digital screen use, and contact lens wear.
What Are Vizcare Eye Drops Used For?
This combination eye drop is used for:
Dry eye syndrome
Burning and itching sensation
Eye redness and irritation
Computer vision syndrome
Gritty or foreign body sensation
Post-LASIK dryness
Contact lens-induced dryness
Environmental dryness due to AC, pollution, and wind
Age-related tear deficiency
The formulation provides a protective, long-lasting tear film that keeps eyes moist and comfortable throughout the day.
Understanding the Two Key Ingredients
Polyethylene Glycol 400 (PEG 400)
PEG 400 is a powerful water-soluble lubricant that:
Improves tear film stability
Provides protective coating over the cornea
Reduces friction on the ocular surface
Helps retain moisture for longer duration
Propylene Glycol
Propylene glycol acts as:
A humectant that attracts and retains water
A soothing agent for irritated eye tissues
An enhancer of lubrication effectiveness
Together, polyethylene glycol 400 and propylene glycol create a synergistic dual-lubricant system that offers superior relief compared to single-ingredient drops.
How Does Vizcare Work?
The combination of PEG 400 and propylene glycol works by:
Replacing insufficient natural tears
Creating a smooth lubricating layer
Protecting the cornea and conjunctiva
Reducing evaporation of tears
Restoring normal eye surface moisture
This mechanism helps provide immediate comfort as well as prolonged hydration.
