In Skin barrier repair: Softvisc Ultra restores the skin's natural protective layer so it holds water better and reacts less to irritants.
In Itching due to dryness: Softvisc Ultra relieves the itch that comes from dry skin by rehydrating it, which also protects the skin from scratch damage.

How it works

Softvisc Ultra Lubricant Eye Drop is a type of lubricant that helps relieve dry eyes by keeping them hydrated and comfortable. It works by forming a protective, moisture-retaining layer over the eye’s surface, reducing dryness, irritation, and discomfort. Softvisc Ultra Lubricant Eye Drop naturally attracts and holds water, ensuring long-lasting hydration and smooth blinking. It also supports eye tissue healing and protects against further irritation caused by factors in the surroundings, like wind, screen time, or air conditioning.
