Mode of Action of Duralub Eg Eye Gel 5gm
How Does It Work?

A decrease in the production of tears leads to drying of the eyes which can result in irritation, redness and itching. Carboxymethylcellulose present in Duralub Eye Gel due to its high viscosity prevents the drainage of tears and increases its retention time in the eye.
