I've spent a great deal of money going to eye doctors and on medicines over the past 10 years trying to find a cure for my "leaky eyes." One tiny bottle of eyedrops was more than $100 and not covered by insurance. I used that for months with absolutely no change. The only thing that seems to give relief, though temporary, is the boric acid compress. My father used it, but since he's long gone, I could only guess at the measurements. I was using a half teaspoon per cup which didn't seem to do any harm and dried my eyes for short periods of time. Although I tend to believe mine is not conjunctivitis since my problem doesn't respond to topical or internal antibiotics or anything the MDs have prescribed, I did find a great deal of information at this web site: http://www.health911.com/remedies/rem_conju.htm At www.dryeyepain.com/Practical3-Vit_Compr.htm - 41k they list 1/8 teaspoon of boric acid powder to 1 cup sterile water.

What is the chemical formula of calcium borate?
Hydrogen Borate, or Boric acid, has a chemical formula of H3BO3
What is the formula of agua boricada?
BORIC ACID solution is used as an irrigation solution to cleanse and treat irritation. Boric acid, also called boracic acid or orthoboric acid or Acidum Boricum, is a mild acid often used as an antiseptic, insecticide, flame retardant, in nuclear power plants to control the fission rate of uranium, and as a precursor of other chemical compounds. It exists in the form of colorless crystals or a white powder and dissolves in water. It has the chemical formula H3BO3, sometimes written B(OH)3. When occurring as a mineral, it is called sassolite. Boric acid is produced mainly from borate minerals by the reaction with sulfuric acid
How do you write the chemical reaction when Boric Acid and Methanol are combined?
H3BO3 (boric acid) + 3CH3OH (methanol) --> B(OCH3)3 (trimethyl borate) + 3H2O (water!)
What is the chemical formula hypobromic acid?
The chemical formula for hypo bromic acid is HBrO.
Is borax the same as boric acid?
Borax and boric acid are not the same thing, but there is a "relationship" between the two. Let's look at each and see the connection.BoraxBorax is an important mineral, and it is goes under the names sodium borate, sodium tetraborate, or bisodium tetraborate. It's chemical formula will be written in basically one of two ways, depending on the water content. These formulae are:Na2B4O7·10H2O and Na2[B4O5(OH)4]·8H2OBoric acidBoric acid has the chemical formula H3BO3, which is sometimes written B(OH)3 when referring to the naturally occurring mineral form of boric acid (sassolite). This weak acid will react to form a salt, and sodium borate (borax) is one of the salts that can result when boric acid reacts with other natural minerals, and that's the connection.As borax can be a product of a boric acid reaction, we should not be surprised to find boric acid in borax, which we do. The fact that sodium borate is a product of a boric acid reaction and that boric acid can be found in borax (and several other minerals as well) connect the two substances.
