Netra Jyoti (Eye Drops)

Eye drops are liquid medications used to address various eye conditions and provide relief from discomfort. They come in several formulations, each targeting specific issues:

1. Lubricating Drops: Also known as artificial tears, these are used to relieve dryness and irritation caused by conditions like dry eye syndrome or extended screen time. They help maintain moisture on the surface of the eye and can provide immediate comfort.

2. Antihistamine Drops: These drops are used to alleviate symptoms of allergic conjunctivitis, such as itching, redness, and watering. They work by counteracting histamine, a compound involved in allergic reactions.

3. Decongestant Drops: These help reduce redness and swelling in the eyes by constricting blood vessels. They are often used for temporary relief from minor irritations but should be used cautiously to avoid rebound redness.

4. Antibiotic Drops: Prescribed for bacterial infections, these drops contain antibiotics that target and eliminate harmful bacteria, treating conditions like bacterial conjunctivitis.

5. Anti-inflammatory Drops: These are used to reduce inflammation and pain in conditions such as uveitis or post-surgery. They often contain corticosteroids or nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs).

Proper use of eye drops involves careful administration to avoid contamination. Consulting a healthcare provider is important to determine the right type of drops and ensure appropriate treatment for specific eye issues.
