Advantages: it has cheap analogues that can be safely used

Flaws: the cons are written in the pros column

These drops were prescribed by an ophthalmologist to my elderly grandmother ( senile cataract), by the way, these drops were not the only ones (but more on that in the following reviews). Naturally, I started looking for information about these drops and instructions for use on the Internet.

Several years ago I worked in a pharmacy, but it’s clear that you can’t remember the active ingredients of every medicine in the world. So what happened. The active substance of taufon is taurine. Taufon costs 130 rubles in the pharmacy, while taurine costs 30. Naturally, the percentage content and volume of the bottle are the same. Of course, I went to the pharmacy and bought taurine. After all, if you can't see the difference, why pay more?

Advantages: availability, not high price.

Flaws: weak (IMHO - for me)

Good day, dear readers of this writing.
I recently purchased these drops (to “muff” the side effects of the antidepressant), I’ve only been using them for 2 weeks.

It helps, my vision has become a little better, in any case, it has not worsened.
This is already a big plus for me.
When instilled, it stings my eyes, but I'm already used to it.

Their price is not expensive, they are sold everywhere, they are also prescribed to the elderly (my grandmother was dripping) for cataracts and other rubbish.
This is just what the old ones need.

Taurine is undoubtedly beneficial for the retina.
They also relieve fatigue and eye tension in the evening, but there are better drops.
Fortunately, pharmaceuticals do not stand still.
Naturally, the prices will be higher, but where can we go - no one can live without pills and drops now.

Health to everyone!

Positive reviews

My vision began to deteriorate in middle school. Now my vision in both eyes is minus 4.5, astigmatism, myopia high degree. I wear glasses all the time at home; without them I can’t see anything. I wear lenses to work. I have an office job, I sit in front of a monitor all day and stare at numbers. So your eyes get tired, mom, don’t worry.

I constantly try to take eye vitamins, and my ophthalmologist also prescribed collagen in powder to strengthen the sclera. But I wouldn’t say that vitamins provide at least some improvement, it’s just that my eyes get less tired from the monitor, that’s all.

Taufon drops were recommended to me in ophthalmology clinic Three Z, and they need to be dripped according to a special pattern.
Previously, I was injected with Taufon under the sclera, and my vision became clearer, improved by half a diopter, and then within six months it dropped again to its original -4.5. But these Taufon injections really supported my eyes. So, if you drip Taufon according to a certain scheme, the effect will be the same as from injections, that is, vision is restored by about half a diopter in ten days, and for about several months.

I need an hour of free time. We drop one drop of Taufon into both eyes. We lie with our eyes closed for 10 minutes, then drop another drop into each eye, and lie again for ten minutes. And this must be repeated every 10 minutes for an hour. Taufon is a little painful and hurts the eye when instilled. But this is bearable pain: believe me, Taufon injections are much more painful!

Good afternoon everyone.

Eyes are a sore subject of mine, and over the entire period of time I used a very large amount of vitamins. Previously, I always thought that the more expensive vitamin drops or tablets, they are more effective. But in reality this is not the case a large number of vitamins in tablet form real benefit does not bring, but turns out to be dummies.

But I have a positive opinion about Taufon drops. I started using them at the institute; I had severe strain on my eyes, constantly working at the computer, reading, and my ophthalmologist recommended them to me. I can say that I felt their effect, they moisturize my eyes, relieve fatigue and redness.

They are not expensive, our pharmacies sell a more expensive analogue of these drops, I also bought them. But they stung my eyes a lot, and I gave them up.

I felt the real effect and I can say that these drops definitely work, I have spots in my eyes and as a result of this there are often flickering sparks, with severe eye strain and when the drops are instilled, they disappear. That's why I trust these drops.

They do not improve vision, but only support the eyes. Taurine is considered a sulfur amino acid.

They are used for eye fatigue, retinal diseases, corneal injuries, cataracts, and glaucoma.
Drops should be instilled 3 times a day, two drops each.

During the day, you can close your eyes 6-7 times, rotate your eyes clockwise, sideways, up and down.

Draw a vertical and horizontal figure eight, rectangle.

Do palming several times a day, you need to rub the palms of your hands and apply them to your eyes so that light does not penetrate. good exercise to rest the eyes.
From folk recipes I recommend drinking blueberries; I pick them myself. And sometimes I buy at the pharmacy.
I recommend the drops for purchase.

Advantages:
Relieve eye strain good prevention, inexpensive
Flaws:
not detected;

I have slight vision problems, which, of course, appeared because of the computer. I have -0.5, at least a little, but in order not to squint at the board, I bought glasses. Basically, I can see everything, I just have to strain, but with glasses everything is just clearer. Well, what am I talking about) When I had my eyesight checked at school, the ophthalmologist prescribed all sorts of exercises for the eyes, watching TV no more than 40 minutes a day, and if you can still do without a TV, then you can’t do without a computer.

And that’s when I was prescribed Taufon eye drops for the first time. They are something like eye vitamins. They should be dripped 2-4 times a day, 1-2 drops.

Nowadays I have to sit at my laptop too much, and just a couple of days ago, my eyes couldn’t stand the strain. They were red and didn’t even rest after sleep. And then I decided to buy mine again faithful assistant"Taufon". Because drops Russian production, then they are inexpensive, about 30 rubles. Yesterday and today I dribbled and my eyes are back to normal!

In addition, Taufon now has a new dropper tube. No special pipette needed. Very comfortably!

Advantages: helps with red eyes

Flaws: No

I have a problem with my eyes. I began to notice that they were constantly red, veins with red veins almost stuck out from my eyes. It’s clear that it’s all because of the computer. In the century computer technology, is it possible to do without them? We quickly got used to the computer and TV that we can no longer imagine life without them. Or maybe it was 25 years ago. In those distant times, we didn’t know about computers, but we didn’t have any problems with our eyes.

I first became acquainted with a computer in 2002. And in 2005 it was already at my house. ;)

Now every second person has red eyes, even in the morning. If previously such red eyes were seen in those who did not sleep at night and worked, now, even if you sleep, you cannot get rid of red eyes... To say that 80% of the population has low vision means hitting the nail on the head.

I decided to go with red eyes. somehow it didn’t look very nice and I went to the pharmacy. There, for 140 rubles, they gave me a cute bottle with the inscription Taufon.

I started dripping them on the same day. I put two drops in each eye and... You won't believe it. but he really helped. In the morning I already woke up with a fresh, well-rested look, my eyes sparkled... It even seemed to me that I looked ten years younger... I even forgot that my look could be so fresh. The eyes looked simply incredibly beautiful. And this is the merit of Taufon.

Advantages: relieves irritation and redness of the eyes;

Review:

I try to visit an ophthalmologist periodically, although they have good vision, but when working with a computer, the load on them is of course very large.

As a preventive measure, the doctor prescribed instillation of the drug Taufon.
The composition contains the substance taurine, usually sold in plastic packaging, but there are also glass bottles.
It is this substance that helps stimulate all metabolic processes in the eyes, helps restore tissue, and improves tissue membranes. As the doctor explained to me, these drops act like vitamins on healthy but tired eyes, so they should be used periodically several times a year.

It is also prescribed for the treatment of corneal dystrophy, any eye injuries, cataracts, for high-quality and rapid healing.

There are practically no contraindications, except if there is individual intolerance.

Prescribe 1-2 drops, preferably at least 3 times a day. The course was prescribed to me for a month, but it can be extended to three if the problem is more significant.

Once the package is opened, the drug is best used within a month.

When using, you feel that your eyes are not so tired from a long working day, there is no dryness or burning, the main thing is to do this regularly to feel the effect.
The product is very inexpensive and effective, I think that every person should use this for prevention.

A few years ago, my grandmother was hospitalized with her eyesight. All of a sudden, my eyesight began to deteriorate sharply; my grandmother could see very poorly even with glasses.
Having contacted the Oculist, she was immediately sent to the hospital, where she was prescribed medication, including Taufon drops. The dosage is two drops twice a day, and grandma used Taufon long time. She spent almost three weeks in the hospital, and then continued treatment at home.
Taufon is used for:

  • dystrophic lesions of the retina of the eye
  • corneal dystrophy
  • senile keratitis
  • diabetic keratitis
  • traumatic and radiation keratitis
  • to reduce inside eye pressure

The price for these drops is more than affordable, I remember we bought them for about 4 hryvnia per bottle. Now the price for Taufon is about 8 hryvnia, but there are more expensive and ineffective drugs.
Since there is a decrease in the indications for Taufon intracranial pressure, then I do not recommend taking the drug on your own without a doctor’s prescription, as is the case with all medications!

Two months ago I was diagnosed with keratitis (inflammation of the cornea of ​​the eye). In my case, it turned out to be a complication of previously unhealed conjunctivitis. In addition to other medications, I was prescribed Taufon in the following dosage: one drop in the right eye 4 times a day. After the first instillation, I felt a slight burning sensation in the lower eyelid area.

But about something like this side effect It's written in the instructions, so don't be upset. After using the drug for about 2 weeks, I went to see an ophthalmologist, who extended the period of its use. In the end, I used it for about a month and a half.

During this time, it was possible to reduce the level of redness of the lower eyelid and increase the level of nutrition of the cornea. The eye began to acquire a pinkish tint in the lower eyelid, and the pain characteristic of keratitis disappeared. Moreover, some are prescribed Taufon for prevention.

The average price of the drug is about 100 rubles, which is quite inexpensive, especially considering the other medications that I had to take.

P.S. Before taking any drug, consult a specialist and carefully read the instructions.

A bunch of ophthalmological diseases are a consequence of excessive load on the organs of vision, leading to their chronic fatigue and the development of dry eye syndrome.

Recently, it has been established that in the brain taurine plays the role of a neurotransmitter amino acid (an amino acid responsible for transmitting excitation to nerve tissue), inhibiting synaptic transmission (transmission nervous excitement), has anticonvulsant activity, and also has a cardiotropic effect (effect on the heart). Characteristic feature taurine is the ability to stimulate reparative (restorative) processes in dystrophic (associated with tissue malnutrition) disorders of the retina, traumatic disorders of eye tissue.
For medical use taurine is available as 4% aqueous solution entitled " tauphone”.

Indications for use

Apply tauphone in adults with dystrophic (associated with tissue malnutrition) lesions of the retina of the eye, including hereditary taperetinal degeneration, corneal dystrophies, senile, diabetic, traumatic and radiation cataracts, as well as a means of stimulating recovery processes in case of injuries to the cornea (the transparent membrane of the eye) .
