Taurine eye drops

We all should know that we cannot do without our eyes when we read books, watch TV, observe people, things and the world. However, many people do not pay attention to protecting their eyes, which leads to myopia at an early age, making life and work very inconvenient. In addition to myopia, there are actually many eye diseases in life, such as keratitis that we often see and uncommon cataracts.

Speaking of cataracts, it should be a relatively serious eye disease. It is different from keratitis. Current medicine does not have special drugs to treat cataracts, and the treatment of cataracts is also quite complicated.

Currently, the drug commonly used by cataract patients is taurine eye drops. The following is a detailed introduction to taurine eye drops.

7 Pharmacological Actions

Taurine is a sulfur-containing amino acid that is the main amino acid in the mature retina. This drug can promote the growth and development of the retina and relieve ciliary muscle spasm. Taurine competitively binds with reducing sugars in the aqueous humor and vitreous body, preventing the glycation and oxidation of proteins in the vitreous body.

Through the above detailed introduction to various aspects of taurine eye drops, I believe everyone has a certain understanding of the uses of taurine eye drops, and basically knows the effect of taurine eye drops on cataracts. However, it needs to be emphasized that in addition to taking medication, we cataract patients must also maintain a positive and optimistic attitude and get plenty of rest in order to cure the disease as soon as possible.
