Dry eyes are very common! Up to 100 million people are thought to be affected globally, including 1 in 4 in the UK.
If you have ever experienced sore, itchy, scratchy, or irritated eyes, eyes that feel heavy and tired at the end of the day, or blurry vision and sensitivity to light, you may find that you have dry eye, a condition which affects 1 in 4 people in the UK.
Treating dry eyes can be as simple as topping up your tears. Artificial tears such as Ocutears® work to…
- Make your eyes feel less dry
- Create a protective cover on your eyes
- Make blinking feel smoother and less scratchy
- Help protect your eyes from getting hurt (by increasing your tear film)
- Help wash away any dirt, allergens, or irritants that might be on your eye’s surface
- Lower the chance of your eyes getting swollen or infected
- Reduce redness
Brought to you by Santen, a global leader in ophthalmology bringing over 130 years of eye care expertise, Ocutears® is an artificial tears portfolio specifically formulated to provide long-lasting hydration and relief from dry eye symptoms.
For mild to moderate dry eye symptoms, Ocutears® Hydro+ and Ocutears® Alo+ both contain 0.4% cross-linked sodium hyaluronate which works to keep the eye drops in place for longer* lasting relief.
- Ocutears® Hydro+ can be used to relieve sore, stinging, gritty, tired, heavy or watery eyes.
- Ocutears® Alo+ contains aloe vera (0.2%), a moisturiser and antioxidant, that relieves symptoms of red, irritated and sensitive eyes for prolonged freshness and long-lasting comfort.
*Compared to non-crosslinked sodium hyaluronate eye drops
For mild to severe dry eye symptoms, Cationorm® is the first and only eye drop to use ionic technology to attract its positively charged solution to the negatively charged surface of the eye, locking in hydration for longer*.
- Cationorm®’s clinically proven, triple-acting formula can help to restore moisture, protect the eye’s surface and relieve irritation.
*Compared to sodium hyaluronate eye drops
Ocutears® Hydro+, Ocutears® Alo+ and Cationorm® are preservative free and contact lens friendly, suitable for everyday use.
