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.
