Lubric Eye Drop 1% is a viscous ophthalmic solution containing Hypromellose, designed to relieve dryness and irritation of the eyes. It is ideal for patients suffering from dry eye syndrome, exposure to environmental irritants, or conditions that reduce tear production. By providing a protective layer over the ocular surface, Lubric Eye Drop 1% alleviates discomfort, reduces friction between the eyelid and cornea, and helps maintain eye moisture for longer periods.

Therapeutic Class

Ocular Lubricants / Artificial Tears

Indications

Lubric Eye Drop 1% is indicated for:

• Dry eye syndrome: Relieves discomfort from insufficient tear production

• Irritation caused by environmental factors: Dust, wind, smoke, or prolonged screen exposure

• Contact lens discomfort: Can be used to relieve dryness during contact lens wear (check lens compatibility)

• Post-surgical or post-procedural use: Supports eye hydration and comfort after ophthalmic procedures

Pharmacology

Hypromellose is a water-soluble polymer that acts as a viscoelastic lubricant. When instilled in the eye, it:

• Forms a protective coating over the cornea and conjunctiva

• Reduces ocular surface friction, preventing further irritation

• Enhances tear film stability, improving eye hydration

• Temporarily replaces natural tears, providing symptomatic relief

Hypromellose is biologically inert, non-irritating, and does not alter normal ocular physiology. It is rapidly distributed over the ocular surface and maintains lubrication for several hours, depending on the severity of dryness.

Dosage and Administration

• Adults and children: Instill 1–2 drops into the affected eye(s) as needed, typically 3–6 times daily

• Can be used more frequently for severe dryness or as advised by a physician

• Shake well before use to ensure uniform consistency

• For contact lens wearers, remove lenses prior to instillation unless the product is labeled safe for lenses

Benefits

• Provides immediate and long-lasting relief from dryness, burning, or irritation

• Protects the cornea and conjunctiva from friction and environmental damage

• Improves comfort during screen use, prolonged reading, or contact lens wear

• Supports ocular surface healing after minor procedures or irritation

Contraindications

• Known hypersensitivity to Hypromellose or any component of the formulation

• Not suitable for use in eyes with active infection unless prescribed with appropriate therapy

Side Effects

• Mild, transient blurred vision immediately after instillation

• Rarely, eye irritation or stinging may occur

• No systemic side effects are expected

Precautions and Warnings

• For ophthalmic use only; avoid contamination of the dropper tip

• If redness, pain, or visual changes persist, discontinue use and consult an eye specialist

• Safe for long-term use under medical supervision

• Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight

Mode of Action

Hypromellose provides artificial lubrication by forming a thin, protective film over the eye surface. This layer mimics natural tears, reducing friction between the eyelid and cornea and maintaining hydration, which helps relieve the symptoms of dry eye and ocular irritation.

Pregnancy and Lactation

• Safe for use during pregnancy and lactation as Hypromellose is minimally absorbed systemically

• Consult a physician for prolonged use during pregnancy

Storage

Store at 15–25°C in a tightly closed container, away from heat and direct sunlight. Keep out of reach of children.
