To provide a contact lens loading or preserving agent and an agar-containing ophthalmic solution, both containing a composition for stabilizing a lacrimal fluid layer for a long time and for smoothly keeping the lacrimal fluid layer of the surface of an eyeball.
The contact lens loading or preserving agent and the agar-containing ophthalmic solution include an agar composition which contains agar and water as indispensable components and of which the deposited agar amount after centrifugal separation at 25C and 40,000g for one hour with a centrifugal separator is less than 65 wt.%. The loading or preserving agent and the ophthalmic solution have stabilizing activity of a lacrimal fluid layer superior to the result of the test of variation of irregularity of a cornea surface. Therefore, the loading or preserving agent and the ophthalmic solution have an efficacy for stably maintaining the lacrimal fluid layer of an ocular surface for a long time and are also available for an artificial lacrimal fluid.
