What are Ophtaxia Eye Wash Solution pods used for?
Ophtaxia Eye Wash Solution is a medical device indicated for thehygiene of the eye and its appendages by irrigation or eye baths. It can be used daily by babies, children, adults and contact lens wearers.
Bausch&Lomb Laboratories' Ophtaxia Eye Wash Solution is a sterile daily eye care product for babies, children and adults. Ophtaxia Unidose is an electrolyte-balanced solution. These electrolytes - potassium, sodium, calcium and magnesium - are naturally present in tears.
- Potassium is highly concentrated, as it plays an essential role alongside sodium in maintaining osmolarity.
- The combination of sodium acetate and sodium citrate acts as a buffer. It adjusts and stabilizes the solution at a pH of around 7 and an osmolarity of around 305 mosm, values similar to those of tears; this guarantees good tolerance over time with regard to the cornea and tear film, even in the event of alteration of these elements.
- The absence of preservatives reinforces safety of use by eliminating any potential cytotoxicity, which is always possible with the presence of such products.
- All these elements respect the integrity of the corneal epithelium.
Preservative-free, Ophtaxia Ophthalmic Wash Solution is a sterile, buffered ophthalmic solution that can be used even if the cornea is damaged, and for wearers of ocular contact lenses.
What are the main treatments for foreign bodies in the eye?
It all depends on the context. In the absence of trauma, it's rinsing, whereas in the case of trauma with an eye wound, rinsing can do more harm than good!
In the absence of associated eye trauma: the only useful thing to do is to rinse the eyes thoroughly. As tap water (even boiled water) and bottled water are not perfectly sterile, eyewash or saline solution should be used, preferably from a new bottle (never opened).
Contact lens wearers should also remove their lenses, clean them thoroughly with a suitable product (after washing their hands) and reinsert them only if eye rinsing has been effective (the pain suddenly disappears and it becomes possible to open the eye).
It is absolutely forbidden to rub the eye or attempt to dislodge the undesirable with a compress (even a sterile one) or worse, with splinter forceps, as this can damage the cornea. Nor should you try to force open an eyelid by pulling on it, as this will only push the foreign body further into the cornea.
