Ocular Lubricants
Sodium hyaluronate and dry eyes
What causes the eye to feel dry?
Dry eye sensation can be caused by a lack of tears, or excessive evaporation
due to
changes in its make-up, or both. Aging, hormonal changes, modern lifestyles,
such as poor diet, computer use and air conditioning, can increase symptoms and
signs.
Dry eye sensation affects millions of people worldwide and is on the increase.
- Office workers, long distance drivers and air travellers are especially susceptible to dryness
- Tired or dry feeling eyes are commonly experienced by contact lens wearers
Naturally effective
Hycosan contains sodium hyaluronate a natural polymer found in the body, including the eyes. Sodium hyaluronate gives Hycosan the ability to not only lubricate the eye but also to retain moisture for longer lasting relief. And it cleverly does this without causing significant blurring of the vision.
Effective relief
Hycosan improves the moisturising of the eye surface by not only lubricating the irritated eye but also attracting and holding water molecules in the tear film for:
- Immediate and long-lasting refreshment
- Gentle soothing lubrication for relief from irritated eyes
- The restoration of sharp vision
