About Muro 128 Sodium Chloride Hypertonicity Ophthalmic Ointment

Sodium Chloride 5%
Also contains: lanolin, mineral oil, purified water, white petrolatum
Indicated for corneal edema
3.5g (1/8oz) tube

Description (Rebecca's)

Added December 2024

Muro 128 Ointment is NOT equivalent to the lubricating ointments sold here (e.g. Refresh PM, Systane PM, Soothe PM, Optase Hylo Night).

Muro 128 is a hypertonic ointment, and while it's sold over-the-counter, it's intended for use only when advised by an eye doctor. It is indicated for corneal edema. In our little corner of the world, it's often used by people suffering from recurrent corneal erosions (RCE), which is why we're stocking it here.

Muro 128 is sold in two forms - drops, or ointment. We only stock the ointment here as we don't think there is much demand for the drop among our customer base, but do let us know if you feel we should stock them.

A little hesitant to do so, but I celebrate this addition to Dry Eye Shop's offerings

I've had DES for 25+ years now (and before this disclosure freaks anyone out, let me disclose that for many of those years, my symptoms went fairly quiet, but not without daily use of FreshKote, the unique OTC high oncotic pressure drop based on the work of the glorious (and now departed) Dr. Frank Holly). It was Rebecca who introduced me to the magic of Dr. Holly's work (no surprise there!). Just when COVID hit in early 2020, a silicone punctal plug I'd been sporting since 2001 (yes -- for 19 years -- truly) suddenly fell out, and this triggered a flare of symptoms that did not go away even after replacement of that plug. Something new must have been brewing. I found a terrific new optometrist well versed in DES, and after ruling out any visible recurrent corneal erosion and concluding that I was probably at a stage when neuropathic ocular surface pain was setting in (and after we opted against scleral lenses for someone like me), she quietly and mischievously asked whether anyone had ever suggested I try Muro 128 5% ointment. And no, none of the probably 15 or more ophthalmologists I had been seen by, over nearly 25 years, had dared suggest this product, and I always assumed this was because of Muro's specific chronic-use indication of corneal edema usually associated with corneal dystrophies, and not garden-variety MGD-triggered DES like mine. My new doc urged me to try a very, very small dab of Muro ointment nightly to see what would happen, after she confidently…
