What is Carbomer used for?

Viscotears is commonly used to relieve symptoms of dry eyes, such as irritation, burning, or a gritty feeling. It provides temporary relief from discomfort caused by environmental factors like wind, dust, or prolonged screen use. The gel helps restore moisture and maintain eye hydration throughout the day.
