Sancoba eye drops 0.02% (eyestrain)

What are Sancoba eye drops 0.02% for eye strain? 

Sancoba eye drops, manufactured by Santen Pharmaceutical, are formulated to address eye strain, a common condition characterized by discomfort and fatigue in the eyes due to prolonged use of digital devices, reading, or other visually demanding activities. The active ingredient in Sancoba eye drops is cyanocobalamin, which is a synthetic form of vitamin B12.

The mechanism of action of cyanocobalamin in Sancoba eye drops is primarily attributed to its ability to support the health and function of the ocular surface. Vitamin B12 plays a crucial role in maintaining the integrity of corneal epithelial cells, which are the outermost protective layer of the eye. By promoting the growth and repair of these cells, cyanocobalamin aids in the prevention of ocular surface damage caused by prolonged eye strain.

Moreover, cyanocobalamin is known for its anti-inflammatory properties, which can help reduce eye irritation and discomfort associated with eye strain. It can also assist in alleviating dryness and maintaining optimal moisture on the ocular surface, offering relief to individuals experiencing eye strain symptoms.

Sancoba eye drops are designed for topical application, ensuring direct delivery of cyanocobalamin to the affected area. The formulation is typically well-tolerated, making it suitable for long-term use without significant adverse effects.
