Description:
Corneal edema is a condition characterized by an accumulation of fluid in the cornea. This transparent part of the eye swells and becomes cloudy, causing a decrease in visual acuity. The person affected by corneal edema has the impression that a fog is obstructing their vision. They may be afraid of light (photophobia) and feel pain
The causes of corneal edema are many and varied: trauma, keratitis, Fuchs' endothelial corneal dystrophy, eye surgery, such as cataract treatment or refractive surgery. The cells responsible for pumping fluid out of the cornea malfunction, leading to fluid accumulation in the cornea and edema
ODM 5, from Horus Pharma, is an ophthalmic solution that will reduce corneal edema. Containing sodium chloride, it acts by hyperosmolarity, attracting and retaining liquids outside the cornea. It is also formulated with sodium hyaluronate, which will help heal and protect the cornea
Thus, ODM 5 reduces edema and improves vision comfort for people suffering from this condition.
