How It works
Camphor is known for its cooling and soothing properties. In eye drops, it can provide a mild cooling sensation and help alleviate discomfort and irritation. Chlorpheniramine is an antihistamine, which means it can help reduce allergic reactions and associated symptoms like itching and redness. It blocks the effects of histamine, a chemical released during allergic responses. Menthol contributes to the cooling and soothing sensation. It can help alleviate minor eye discomfort and provide relief from irritation. Naphazoline and phenylephrine are vasoconstrictors that work by narrowing blood vessels in the eyes. This helps reduce redness and minor irritation.
