Optrex Eye Wash (Optrex Eye Bath)

Indications

Optrex Eye Wash Solution is a product designed to cleanse and soothe irritated, tired, and uncomfortable eyes. The Solution works by washing away particles such as dust, pollen, grit, and smoke from the eyes to cleanse and soothe them. It is easy and safe to use and can be used with the help of a sterile eye bath or by using an eye dropper.

Optrex Eye Wash Solution is balanced to the natural pH level of tears and is enriched with plant extracts to gently remove particles that can easily get into the eyes, particularly when using products such as make-up or contact lenses. It can be used by people who spend a lot of time in front of computers, driving, or in polluted environments.
