Sodium Hyaluronate Products

Sodium hyaluronate is a natural substance found in the body that is used in ophthalmic and osteoarthritis pain treatment. It is a form of hyaluronic acid, a glycosaminoglycan that is present in connective tissues and joint fluids. Sodium hyaluronate is also known as hyaluronan or hyaluronic sodium salt, and it is used as a viscoelastic agent in ophthalmic surgeries and as an injection for treating osteoarthritis pain.
In ophthalmic surgeries, sodium hyaluronate is used as a viscoelastic agent to protect the cornea and maintain the anterior chamber during procedures such as cataract surgery and corneal transplant. It acts as a cushion and lubricant, preventing damage to the delicate cornea and aiding in the healing process.
In the treatment of osteoarthritis pain, sodium hyaluronate is injected directly into the affected joint to increase its viscosity and provide relief from pain and stiffness. It is believed to promote the regeneration of cartilage in the joint, reducing friction and improving joint function.
