Why is it important to choose preservative-free eye drops
Every day, we take in preservatives through food or medicine, meant to prevent them from going bad. However, there is a growing trend to avoid products containing preservatives due to the controversy surrounding their use. This is particularly important in the food and pharmaceutical industries.
A preservative is an additive to a medicine that prevents degradation, discoloration or spoilage of the product. The goal is to destroy microorganisms and preserve the effectiveness of the medicine. The preservative should be non-toxic and should not irritate the tissue.
Since the eyes are extremely sensitive, even the smallest concentrations of preservatives in eye drops can cause irritation, inflammation or redness of the eyes. In some cases, long-term use of eye drops with preservatives can lead to development dry eye symptoms. In order to protect the health of the eyes, it is advisable to choose drops that do not contain preservatives.
