OSCINAP® Eye Drops combine the power of N-Acetyl Carnosine (NAC), a potent topical antioxidant, with Carboxymethylcellulose Sodium, a proven lubricant and demulcent for dry, irritated eyes. This synergistic formula helps in the prevention and management of oxidative stress–related eye disorders, often seen after ocular surgery or due to aging. NAC, a stable prodrug of L-carnosine, penetrates ocular tissues where it is bioactivated, providing strong protection against free radical damage, protein glycation, and DNA damage. Carboxymethylcellulose soothes and hydrates the ocular surface, while Glycerin adds moisturizing benefits. Together, these ingredients support ocular health, improve comfort, and slow the progression of degenerative eye diseases such as cataracts, glaucoma, retinal degeneration, corneal disorders, and diabetic eye complications.
