Composition and properties of the drug

The active ingredients of the drug are taurine, succinic acid, chlorhexidine bigluconate and distilled water. Each component performs its functions:

  1. Chlorhexidine bigluconate has a bactericidal effect, destroying gram-positive and gram-negative pathogenic microorganisms, affecting a number of lipophilic viruses and dermatophytes. Destroys the osmotic balance and cell membranes of pathogenic microorganisms, which leads to their destruction.
  2. Succinic acid and taurine promote redox processes and slow down the development of ophthalmic pathologies, including cataracts. They have a preventive effect, preventing the development of degenerative and dystrophic processes in the lens and retina.
  3. The drops have a complex effect: anti-edematous, bactericidal and anti-inflammatory. In addition, they help eliminate inflammatory processes in the mucous membranes of the eyes, relieve pain, itching and burning sensations.
  4. Thanks to the balanced combination of all active components, the sterile ophthalmic solution is quickly absorbed into the soft tissues, providing a positive therapeutic result in the shortest possible time.

Indications and contraindications

The medication is recommended for use in the following clinical cases:

  • excessive lacrimation in the animal;
  • inflammatory processes in the mucous membranes of the eyes;
  • hyperemia;
  • allergic conjunctivitis;
  • blepharitis, keratitis, trichiasis;
  • presence of a foreign body in the eye;
  • eye injuries;
  • treatment of acute and chronic viral and infectious eye diseases.

Eye drops Diamond eyes have bactericidal, anti-inflammatory and anti-edematous properties. When instilled into the conjunctival cavity, the drug easily penetrates all tissues of the eye, providing a stable therapeutic level of active components.

Chlorhexidine bigluconate has a rapidly manifesting bactericidal effect on gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, darmatophytes and lipophilic viruses. The mechanism of its action is the binding of cations formed as a result of the dissociation of chlordixidin salts by the walls of bacterial cells, disrupting the osmotic balance and membrane function of cells, which leads to a decrease in the level of cellular ATP and the death of the microorganism. Taurine and succinic acid normalize redox processes, have a reparative effect, slow down the development of cataracts and prevent degenerative and dystrophic disorders in the retina and lens.
