Ophthacare is a clinically-formulated, herbal eye drop solution designed to address a spectrum of ocular surface disorders by leveraging the synergistic power of time-tested botanicals. It provides a multi-faceted approach to eye care, targeting inflammation, microbial load, and cellular integrity to restore comfort and visual clarity. Developed with rigorous pharmacological standards, it offers a safe and effective alternative or adjunct to conventional treatments for patients seeking a more natural therapeutic pathway. Its unique composition makes it suitable for managing both acute flare-ups and chronic conditions requiring sustained ocular support.
Features
- A proprietary blend of 11 key herbal extracts, including Carum copticum, Terminalia chebula, Curcuma longa, and Ocimum sanctum.
- Presented as a sterile, isotonic, buffered ophthalmic solution for optimal comfort and bioavailability.
- Formulated with natural antioxidants and anti-inflammatory compounds to combat oxidative stress at the cellular level.
- Possesses inherent antimicrobial and astringent properties, supporting the eye’s natural defense mechanisms.
- Preservative-free formulation in single-use dropper vials to minimize risk of contamination and sensitivity reactions.
Benefits
- Soothes Inflammation and Irritation: Rapidly reduces redness, swelling, and the gritty sensation associated with conjunctivitis, blepharitis, and computer vision syndrome.
- Promotes Microbial Defense: Creates an unfavorable environment for bacterial and viral pathogens, aiding in the management and prevention of infectious eye conditions.
- Enhances Tear Film Stability: Supports the lipid and mucin layers of the tear film, providing lasting relief from symptoms of dry eye disease.
- Accelerates Mucosal Healing: Encourages regeneration of the corneal and conjunctival epithelium, shortening recovery time from abrasions or post-operative procedures.
- Provides Antioxidant Protection: Neutralizes free radicals generated by UV exposure, pollution, and screen time, helping to protect against long-term degenerative changes.
- Offers a Favorable Safety Profile: As a natural formulation, it presents a lower risk of serious adverse effects compared to long-term use of steroid-based eye drops.
Common use
Ophthacare is commonly indicated for the symptomatic management and treatment of a variety of inflammatory and infectious ocular conditions. Its primary uses include acute and chronic conjunctivitis (both allergic and infective), blepharitis, and dry eye syndrome. It is also effectively employed as a supportive therapy in cases of computer vision syndrome (digital eye strain) to relieve discomfort from prolonged screen exposure. Furthermore, clinicians may recommend its use post-ocular surgery or minor corneal abrasions to support the healing process and maintain a healthy ocular surface environment, reducing the risk of secondary infections.
Dosage and direction
The standard dosage for adults and children over 12 years of age is one to two drops instilled into the affected eye(s) two to three times daily, or as directed by a healthcare professional. For acute conditions, frequency may be increased to every 3-4 hours during the initial 48 hours under medical supervision.
Directions for Use:
- Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water.
- Tilt the head backward and look upward.
- Gently pull the lower eyelid downward to form a pouch.
- Hold the dropper tip close to the eye without touching the eyelid, lashes, or any surface to avoid contamination.
- Instill the prescribed number of drops into the conjunctival sac.
- Close the eye gently and apply light pressure to the inner corner of the eye (nasolacrimal duct) for 1-2 minutes. This minimizes systemic absorption.
- Do not blink excessively or rinse the dropper.
- Replace the cap securely immediately after use.
- If using other topical ophthalmic medications, administer Ophthacare last and wait at least 5-10 minutes between applications.
Precautions
- A thorough ophthalmological examination is recommended for a precise diagnosis before initiating treatment.
- For external use in the eyes only. Do not ingest.
- If wearing contact lenses, remove them prior to instillation. Lenses may be reinserted after 15 minutes.
- If the solution changes color or becomes cloudy, do not use.
- Monitor for signs of hypersensitivity reaction, such as increased redness, itching, or swelling. Discontinue use and consult a physician if these occur.
- Use with caution in patients with a known hypersensitivity to any of the herbal ingredients.
- The safety and efficacy in pregnant women, nursing mothers, and children under the12 years of age have not been conclusively established. Use in these populations should only be under the direct advice of a physician.
Contraindications
Ophthacare is contraindicated in patients with a known hypersensitivity to any component of the formulation. Its use is also contraindicated in cases of purulent conjunctivitis or suspected fungal infections without concurrent appropriate antifungal therapy, as the environment may be exacerbated. It should not be used in the presence of a perforated eyeball or deep corneal ulceration where the integrity of the globe is compromised.
Possible side effect
Ophthacare is generally well-tolerated due to its natural composition. However, as with any ophthalmic preparation, some individuals may experience side effects, typically mild and transient.
- Common (may affect up to 1 in 10 people): A temporary, mild stinging or burning sensation upon instillation; transient blurring of vision immediately after application.
- Uncommon (may affect up to 1 in 100 people): Mild redness, watering of the eyes, or itching.
- Rare (may affect up to 1 in 1,000 people): Allergic reactions manifesting as severe itching, eyelid dermatitis, or increased swelling and redness. Discontinuation is advised if any such symptoms appear.
Drug interaction
Formal drug interaction studies have not been conducted with Ophthacare. However, as it is a topical preparation, the potential for systemic interactions is low. When used concomitantly with other topical ophthalmic medications (e.g., antibiotics, glaucoma medications, anti-inflammatory agents), physical incompatibility or dilution may occur. To avoid this, a minimum interval of 5-10 minutes should be maintained between the application of different eye drops. Ophthacare should be administered last in the sequence. Patients should inform their physician about all medications they are using, including prescription, over-the-counter, and herbal products.
Missed dose
If a dose is missed, it should be instilled as soon as it is remembered. However, if it is almost time for the next scheduled dose, the missed dose should be skipped, and the regular dosing schedule resumed. Do not instill a double dose to make up for a missed one. Maintaining a consistent schedule is optimal for therapeutic effect, but occasional missed doses are unlikely to significantly compromise treatment outcomes.
Overdose
Overdose from topical ocular application is unlikely due to minimal systemic absorption. Instilling an excessive number of drops will primarily result in increased local effects, such as more pronounced stinging, redness, watering, and blurred vision. The eye(s) should be rinsed gently with lukewarm sterile saline or water if discomfort occurs. In the event of accidental ingestion, seek immediate medical attention or contact a Poison Control center, although systemic effects are not expected.
Storage
- Store below 25°C (77°F). Do not freeze.
- Keep the vial tightly closed in its original outer carton to protect from light and moisture.
- Once a single-use container is opened, it should be used immediately and any remaining solution discarded. Do not store a partially used vial.
- Keep out of the reach and sight of children.
- Do not use after the expiration date printed on the packaging.

- “I’ve suffered from severe allergic conjunctivitis for years. Prescription drops often made my eyes feel worse. My ophthalmologist suggested trying Ophthacare. The relief was not instant, but after a few days of consistent use, the itching and redness subsided significantly without the nasty side effects. It’s been a game-changer.” – Mark T.
- “We use this in our clinic for post-cataract surgery patients to manage inflammation and support healing. Patients appreciate the natural aspect, and we’ve observed excellent epithelial recovery rates and very low incidence of postoperative dryness.” – Surgical Nurse, Ambulatory Care Center
- “After eight hours coding at a computer, my eyes are always bloodshot and feel like sandpaper. Keeping a box of Ophthacare singles at my desk has solved the problem. A drop in each eye at lunch and before I leave work keeps them clear and comfortable all day.” – Sarah L.
- “I was skeptical about an herbal eye drop, but after a stubborn case of conjunctivitis didn’t fully resolve with a antibiotic drop, I tried Ophthacare. The redness and discharge cleared up within 72 hours. I’m thoroughly impressed with its efficacy.” – David K.
