Oftalmovit A Fatro 5 grams

• Facilitates corneal re-epithelialization and reduces the formation of superficial scars.
• Increases the density of goblet cells, improving mucin secretion and corneal hydration.
• The oily base creates a protective film against friction and external aggressions.
• Relieves superficial irritation symptoms such as itching and mild inflammation.
• Complements treatments with eye drops in chronic conditions when applied after them.
• 5 g format suitable for multiple applications in local treatments.

What species is it indicated for?

Indicated for dogs and cats under veterinary prescription or recommendation; not authorized for human use.

How does vitamin A work in the ointment?

Vitamin A palmitate promotes the differentiation and proliferation of epithelial cells and the increase of goblet cells, which improves the stability of the tear film and the repair of the corneal surface.

How often should it be applied?

Apply between 2 and 4 times a day according to veterinary indication; in chronic treatments, the regimen may vary and the ointment is usually administered after the eye drops.

How long does a 5 g package last?

A 5 g package offers several dozen applications; using a small amount (similar to a grain of rice for corneal ulcers) the approximate duration can range between 60 and 100 applications, depending on the size of the dose applied.

Can it be used together with eye drops?

Yes. In combined treatments, it is advisable to respect a brief interval between instillations and apply the ointment after the eye drops in chronic therapies to ensure the absorption of both products.

Is there a risk of cross-contamination?

Yes. Avoid direct contact of the applicator with the eyeball or contaminated surfaces to minimize risks; if purulent discharge, prolonged inflammation, or signs of hypersensitivity appear, consult the veterinarian.

Does it stain surfaces or home fabrics?

The oily base may leave greasy residues on periocular hair, carpets, parquet, and textiles. It is advisable to anticipate possible transfer to surfaces and pet bedding until the product is distributed or removed.

Can it be used on deep or perforating ulcers?

Not without strict supervision from the veterinarian. In severe corneal lesions, the indication and technique must be assessed by the professional.
