Puralube Ointment: Safe Eye Care for Pets!

Puralube Vet Ointment is a sterile ocular lubricant that soothes dry eyes in dogs and cats for extended periods. Formulated with petrolatum, this ophthalmic ointment prevents further irritation of the eye through the protective barrier it forms over the eye while maintaining moisture and comfort. The Puralube Vet Ointment is safe and gentle on animals, making it perfect for dry eye conditions and during anesthesia for the protection of the corneas.

Puralube Vet Ointment is essentially used by pet owners who want to alleviate the symptoms of dry eye in dogs and cats. The soft and protective formula keeps it safe for prolonged use in your pet, maintaining health and comfort in their eyes.

Key Benefits:

  • Smoothing action: The active ingredient petrolatum in petrolatum is an effective ocular lubricant. It protects the surface of the eye by forming a protective film over the moisture and the eyes from external irritants like dust, debris, and other foreign particles.
  • Dry Eye Relief: This is very effective in bringing symptomatic relief to keratoconjunctivitis sicca by supplementation of the natural moisture barrier of the eye.
  • Prevents Irritation: Puralube Vet Ointment, through its lubricating effect on the eye, helps to avoid irritation arising from non-infectious causes like wind, low humidity, and sun exposure.
  • Easy to apply, as it goes directly onto the eye, and a small amount is usually quite sufficient for an effective protecting layer.
  • Safe for both dogs and cats due to the specially formulated characteristics, making it quite versatile for households with more than one type of pet.
  • Anesthesia: Often used on the eyes of animals to protect their eyes when under anesthesia, as they cannot blink and keep the eyes moistened naturally while being sedated.

Instructions:

Pull down the lower lid of the affected eye and apply a small amount (one-fourth-inch) of ointment to the inside of the eyelid.

Ingredients:

White Petrolatum and Light Mineral Oil.
