An imbalance of the tear film can create a “cycle of Dry Eye symptoms”, including ocular surface inflammation, that can eventually result in corneal damage.3
Artelac Gel Tears and Night Time Gel are proven to significantly improve tear film break-up time and symptoms, including burning, stinging, itchiness and ocular surface inflammation.4,5,6
They contain:
• Lipids to support the lipid tear film layer and seal in moisture1
• Sterile water to support the aqueous layer1
• Carbomer to help bind moisture in the mucin layer2
