Better lubricant for eyes
Hi,
I have about 10-11 hours of screen exposure. I want to ask which of the following eye lubricant would be better for me for everyday use -
1) "Refresh Liquigel" which contains 1% Carboxymethylcellulose. But it also contains preservative - oxychloro complex
2) "Genteal" eye drops which contains Hydroxypropylmethylcellulose but thats only 0.3%.
Is 0.3% of this medicine comparable with 1% of 1st medicine and which one is better?
Thanks

Both are equally good. Can use anyone. Oxychloro complex is safe.
