About Borocool Eye Drop

BORIC ACID+NAPHAZOLINE belongs to the class of medications called ‘Ophthalmologic agents’ used in the treatment of allergic conjunctivitis (eye infection) and computer vision syndrome. Allergic conjunctivitis is the inflammation of the conjunctiva (lining of the eye) due to exposure to allergens such as pollen and mold spores. Computer vision syndrome is the group of eye problems that occur due to prolonged use of a computer or digital devices.

BORIC ACID+NAPHAZOLINE contains boric acid and naphazoline. Boric acid has mild antimicrobial properties and acts against bacterial and fungal infections. It provides soothing relief from eye irritation and removes pollutants from the eye. Naphazoline is a vasoconstrictor that works by constricting or narrowing the eye's blood vessels, thus providing relief from redness, swelling, and irritation.
