Medicinal Benefits:

Drflot 0.1% Eye Drop contains 'fluorometholone', which belongs to the class of medicines called 'steroids'. It controls inflammation by acting on the immune system and decreasing the provoked immune system by blocking white blood cells (WBC) from attacking the injured site's cells. As a result, this reduces the release of chemicals (prostaglandin) that cause pain and inflammation in the eyes. It also causes constriction (narrowing) of blood vessels, decreasing the access of cells to the injury site, which helps reduce the swelling, pain, and discomfort in the eyes.
