Pirenoxine sodium eye drops

Function and Efficacy

Studies have shown that one of the causes of cataract formation is that soluble proteins in the lens are gradually transformed into insoluble proteins by the action of quinones. Quinones are formed by the abnormal metabolism of tryptophan, an important functional amino acid in the body. The effect of such quinones on soluble proteins in the lens can be competitively inhibited by pyrenoxetine sodium. In addition, pyrenoxetine sodium can also fight against cataracts caused by free radical damage to the lens. Therefore, this product has a certain inhibitory effect on the development of cataracts. Animal experiments have shown that pyrenoxetine sodium can reduce the incidence of posterior capsule opacity after extracapsular cataract extraction.
