Clinical Pharmacology
Oftolic BK has a protective effect on the cornea with reduced secretion of the tear fluid or with increased evaporation of the tear film.
Polyvinyl alcohol and povidone have lubricant properties, which reduces eye irritation and redness. These substances reduce the tension of the surface of the tear film, easily covering the surface of the eye, and prevent the occurrence of tearing tear film. Polyvinyl alcohol has properties similar to mucin, producing conjunctival glands. It helps to soften and lubricate (moisturize) the surface of the eye, increases the stability of the tear film.
Indications
- Sensation of burning, irritation, and discomfort caused by dry eyes.
- As tear substitutes in case of a decrease in the secretion of tear fluid.
- Dry eye syndrome or any other conditions that require softening and moisturizing of the cornea.

Drug interactions
Polyvinyl alcohol undergoes an esterification reaction characteristic of compounds with secondary hydroxy groups. It breaks down in strong acids and softens or dissolves in weak acids and alkalis. In high concentrations, polyvinyl alcohol is incompatible with inorganic salts, especially phosphates and sulfates. The precipitation of 5% polyvinyl alcohol can be caused by reaction with phosphates. Gel formation from a polyvinyl alcohol solution can occur in the presence of borax.
Povidone solution is compatible with many inorganic salts, natural and synthetic resins and other substances. It interacts in solution with sulfathiazole, sodium salicylate, salicylic acid, phenobarbital, tannin and other substances. The effectiveness of some preservatives (eg, thiomersal) may decrease due to the formation of complexes with povidone.
