Description (Manufacturer's)
Overview
The leading challenges for contact lens patient compliance are dry eye, allergy, foreign body sensation and inflammation.
These drops contain powerful ingredients to stimulate tear film production, counter-act irritation, halt allergies and reduce foreign body sensation. Homeopathic Calendula is known to support corneal health and is indicated for corneal abrasions and erosions. The clarifying “Thin Drop” is preservative free and used as often as needed to alleviate dry, red, itchy, irritated eyes and is also OK with all contacts. The “Thick Drop” reduces mechanical irritation. Homeopathic drops are safe for children and nursing/pregnant women.
Directions
(Per product label) Instill 1 or 2 drops in the affected eye(s) as often as needed.
(Per manufacturer's site, additional recommendations): Instill one or two drops in the affected eye(s) upon waking to facilitate lens removal. Use as often as needed throughout the day to alleviate dryness, redness or discomfort.
Uses
According to homeopathic principles these drops are indicated to relieve dryness, redness, irritation and to promote corneal health*.
