Leader Sterile Lubricant Eye Drops is an over-the-counter eye drop solution containing carboxymethylcellulose sodium, a lubricating agent. This product is marketed as an OTC monograph drug, meaning it follows FDA's established category rules rather than being individually reviewed. Carboxymethylcellulose sodium is commonly used in eye drops to help lubricate the eye surface and is typically found in products designed to soothe dry or irritated eyes. The drops come in single-use vials for convenient application.
