Ocured Eye Drops 10ml./Btl.

Description

Dusty, smoky atmospheres, eye strain and chlorine in swimming pools can make the eyes red. When the eyes are red it is because more blood than usual is flowing through the small blood vessels of the eye. OCURED contains two active ingredients: Antazoline sulphate is an anti-allergic agent and Naphazoline Nitrate which is restores the normal flow of blood to remove redness. OCURED helps to make your eyes feel more comfortable by relieving the redness and itching caused by allergies such as hay fever, or house dust allergy.
