UNItears contains some of the most known and most effective ingredients for treating dry eye syndrome, hypromellose and dexpanthenol.
Hypromellose is commonly known as hyproxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC). It is a moisturizing agent and it forms a film on eye surface, but otherwise is an inactive ingredient. Hypromellose acts like artificial tears, and it’s intended for local administration in ophthalmology. It creates a temporary protective film on eye surface, and makes the eye surface well moisturized, which reduces irritations.
Dexpanthenol is a derivate of pantothenic acid, a B group vitamine. This pro vitamin has ability to bind a large amount of water, so it moisturizes eye surface, but it also contributes to a faster regeneration of cells on the cornea surface.
