About DOLOKIND EYE DROPS 5ML

DOLOKIND EYE DROPS 5ML belongs to the class of medicines called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) to prevent the pupil from narrowing or constricting during eye surgery. Also, DOLOKIND EYE DROPS 5ML is used to treat postoperative pain and swelling of the eye.

DOLOKIND EYE DROPS 5ML is a combination of two drugs, namely: Flurbiprofen (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug) and Hypromellose (eye lubricant).

Thereby, it helps in relieving pain and swelling after eye surgeries. Hypromellose works by forming a lubricating, transparent, and moistening film on the cornea (surface of the eye) and artificial tears. Thereby, it provides a soothing effect and relieves irritation and dryness caused by decreased tear flow.
