Buy Dry Eye Drops
Dry eye
is a very common and troublesome problem than can affect all ages. There may be several underlying causes, and unfortunately there is no permanent cure.
The mainstay of treatment is the use of eye drops.
There are over 40 different over the counter dry eye drops available to buy without a prescription. This makes choosing the correct eye drop potentially confusing.
Currently available eye drops ma
y
contain one of the following active ingredients:
1) Sodium Hyaluronate.
2) Hypromellose.
3) Polyvinyl alcohol.
4) Car
boxymethyl cellulose
.
5
) Poly
ethylene
glycol.
6
)
Carbomer
.
None of these ingredients is superior to the other. The recommendation of our Consultants is therefore to try an eyedrop from each category to see which suits you the best.
