Please advise what is the difference between artificial tears and regular naphcon?

A lot: Artificial tears attempt to replace portiond of the natural tear layer (mucous, aqueous, lipid) . Different artificial tear replace these in different amounts. Naphcon is an antihistamine that blocks histamine receptors, reducing allergic symptoms.
