The present invention addresses the problem of maintaining a high retention rate of the kinematic viscosity of an ophthalmic composition such as an ophthalmic solution containing hyaluronic acid or a salt thereof. Provided is an ophthalmic composition containing 0.001 0.5% (w/v) of hyaluronic acid or a salt thereof 0.0005 0.02% (w/v) of chlorhexidines 0.03 1.5% (w/v) of propylene glycol and 0.015% (w/v) or less of ethylenediaminetetraacetates.
