Abstract:Objective: To investigate the effect of Haizhumingmu (HZMM) eye drops on cataract in rats. Methods: Cataract was induced by galactose in rats, and the levels of SP, SOD, GSH, GSH-Px and MDA in lenses were determined. Results: As compared with the control group, both the speed and the degree of cloudiness in lenses were significantly decreased by middle and high doses of HZMM eye drops (P < 0. 05 and P < 0. 01). The levels of SOD, GSH and GSH-Px in lenses were significantly increased by low, middle and high doses of HZMM eye drops (P < 0. 05 and P < 0. 01) , the content of MDA in lenses was significantly decreased (P < 0. 05 and P < 0. 01) , and the content of SP was not significantly affected in each group (P > 0. 05). Conclusion: HZMM eye drops can delay and control the formation of the cataract by inhibition of oxidation of the lens, suggesting a protective effect on early cataract.
