Lubrifresh Gel

Lubrifresh Gel is a sterile, preservative-free gel containing Carboxymethylcellulose (1% w/v) as its active ingredient. It is designed to provide relief for dry and irritated eyes caused by various factors such as environmental conditions or medical conditions. This gel offers long-lasting lubrication to protect and hydrate the eye's surface, ensuring comfort and preventing further discomfort associated with dry eyes. Lubrifresh Gel is commonly recommended for people experiencing symptoms of eye dryness or irritation.

Uses of Lubrifresh Gel

Lubrifresh Gel is primarily used to treat the following conditions:

• Dry eye syndrome or ocular dryness
• Irritated eyes due to environmental conditions (dust, wind, pollution)
• Eye discomfort after long hours of screen use
• Relief for eyes after surgery or medical procedures like LASIK
• Reduces eye irritation caused by certain medications or contact lens wear

How Lubrifresh Gel Works

Lubrifresh Gel works by forming a protective layer over the surface of the eye, which helps to lock in moisture and prevent irritation. The Carboxymethylcellulose in the gel acts as a lubricant that soothes and hydrates the dry areas of the eye, providing long-lasting relief and comfort.

Make sure to wash your hands before using the gel. Avoid touching the tip of the tube to any surface, including the eye, to maintain sterility. If you wear contact lenses, remove them before applying the gel.
