● Features
Effective for severe eye fatigue caused by concentrated work
Contains the maximum concentration of active ingredients※1※2
Troublesome eye problems such as "my eyes feel strained" and "my eyes feel heavy and tired" may be caused by the ciliary muscles※3 inside the eyes becoming stiff and poor blood circulation in the eyes due to concentrated work on computers or prolonged use of smartphones.
Sante Medical Plus 12 contains six active ingredients※1 effective for improving eye fatigue, including vitamin B12 and neostigmine methyl sulfate, at the maximum concentration※2. It also contains natural vitamin E (d-alpha-tocopheryl acetate) to improve blood flow, vitamin B6, potassium L-aspartate, and taurine to activate eye tissue metabolism, totaling 12 active ingredients. This eye drop improves blood flow in the eyes and works on the ciliary muscles※3 and peripheral nerves to enhance weakened focusing function and effectively improve eye fatigue.
※1 Vitamin B12, neostigmine methyl sulfate, chondroitin sulfate ester sodium, chlorpheniramine maleate, tetrahydrozoline hydrochloride, dipotassium glycyrrhizinate
※2 Maximum concentration according to the standards for manufacturing and marketing approval of general ophthalmic drugs (the approval standards refer to the range of pharmaceuticals established by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare to streamline approval procedures)
