Action
Pharmacology: According to the quinoid theory, senile cataract is a manifestation of the degeneration of lens protein induced by quinones which are formed owing to disorder of tryptophan metabolism. Since pirenoxine has a higher affinity for water­ soluble lens protein than quinones, it competitively inhibits quinone binding and thereby prevents protein degeneration.
