How On Tears Gel drops Works

On Tears Gel drops contains carboxymethylcellulose, which works by acting as a lubricant that closely mimics the behaviour of your natural tears. When applied to the eye, the active ingredient binds to the corneal surface, holding water molecules in place. This helps to stabilise the tear film, which is the delicate layer of moisture covering your eye. By reinforcing this tear film, On Tears Gel drops prevents moisture from evaporating too quickly. It creates a smooth, protective barrier over the eye, allowing the eyelid to glide easily during blinking, which reduces friction and prevents irritation.
