How Calcium Chloride+Potassium Iodide+Sodium Chloride works

Calcium chloride reverses calcium depletion (due to ageing) by increasing the calcium stores in the eyes, potassium iodide and sodium chloride work by maintaining osmotic pressure and lens permeability by balancing intracellular potassium and extracellular sodium ions in the lens membrane which results in the electrolyte balance thus maintaining lens permeability and preventing the occurrence of cataract due to electrolyte imbalance.
