- Your eyes are dry and irritated and your eyelids are red and painful. You wake up in the morning with crusty eyelids. This could indicate meibomian gland dysfunction.
- The meibomian glands are located in the upper and lower eyelids and their outlets are located in the eyelid margins. These glands are responsible for the lipid phase of the tear film by secreting an oily secretion directly onto the eyelid margins. This renews the lipid phase every time the eye blinks, the purpose of which is to prevent premature evaporation and destabilisation of the tear. If the function of the meibomian glands is restricted or their outlets are blocked, a lipid phase disorder occurs. This results in dry eyes due to premature evaporation of the tears or watery eyes.
- Reddened eyes and eyelid margins or encrusted eyelids
- Watery eyes
- Burning eyes
- Pronounced discomfort in the morning that improves over the course of the day
- Hormone therapy (e.g. contraceptive pill)
- Hormonal changes (e.g. menopause)
- Age-related dry eyes
- Outstanding properties thanks to perfluorohexyloctane and water-free formulation
- Omega-3 from algae to build up the lipid phase
- First emulsion-free omega-3 formulation for dry eyes
- Omega-3 stands for omega-3 fatty acids. They are a component of natural tears. Dry eyes are often associated with a lack of omega-3 in the tear film. The greater the omega-3 deficiency, the more severe the tear film disorder and the associated corneal damage2.
- EvoTears® OMEGA contains omega-3 fatty acids that are extracted from algae and not from fish. EvoTears® OMEGA is therefore also suitable for vegans.
- Thanks to the innovative substance perfluorohexyloctane, EvoTears® OMEGA is lipophilic and still has the same refractive index as tears. This means that vision is not impaired.
- Perfluorohexyloctane has other favourable properties that were previously unknown in dry eye therapy. EvoTears® OMEGA spreads very quickly and rapidly forms a protective coating over the tear. This counteracts premature evaporation. In addition, one drop is only approx. 10 µl in size and therefore up to 280 drops per 3 ml content can be taken from a bottle of EvoTears® OMEGA.
- EvoTears® OMEGA combines effective evaporation protection thanks to an innovative substance and the absence of water with omega-3 from algae to soothe irritated eyes and eyelid margins.
