How Camphor+Menthol+Naphazoline+Phenylephrine works

Phenylephrine acts directly on a-adrenergic receptors in the eye, producing contraction of the dilator muscle of the pupil and constriction of the arterioles in the conjunctiva. Naphazoline works by constricting the blood vessels and relieving itching and irritation of the eye. Menthol works by activating cold-sensitive receptors, which cause a cold sensation, and it may also relieve pain by activating the kappa-opioid receptor. Camphor works by providing a cooling and soothing effect.
