Description

What is Viscotears Single Dose Units Gel?

Viscotears Single Dose Units Gel For Dry Eye Treatment contains carbomer 2.0 mg/g (polyacrylic acid), a highly effective ingredient used to make your eyes more comfortable when they feel dry. As one of the most trusted carbomer eye gel products, it forms a protective, moisturising layer over the eye, acting as an 'artificial tear' to alleviate symptoms of dry eye problems, irritation, and fatigue.

How does Carbomer work for dry eyes?

Carbomer, the active ingredient in Viscotears, is a highly viscous polymer that mimics the natural tear film. When applied to the eye, this liquid gel for dry eyes spreads easily and forms a lubricating and protective film. This film stays on the eye surface for an extended period, providing sustained moisture and comfort, which is especially beneficial for those suffering from chronic dryness or irritation.
