Description
Medical device.
Ophthalmic gel indicated for the protection, hydration and lubrication of the eye in the treatment of moderate to severe dry eye syndrome.
It is recommended in cases of discomfort, stinging sensation, foreign body sensation or eye irritation due to moderate to severe dry eye.
THEALOZ GEL provides immediate relief from dry eye symptoms that lasts all day. The main ingredients of THEALOZ GEL are trehalose, sodium hyaluronate and carbomer (Carbopol 974P). Trehalose is a natural substance found in many plants and animals, which can survive in extremely dry conditions. It provides protective and hydrating properties. Sodium hyaluronate, present in the human eye, retains water to hydrate and lubricate the eye surface. It keeps the solution on the eye surface, providing long-lasting relief and shortening the healing time of the ocular surface. Carbomer allows THEALOZ GEL to remain on the eye surface for a long time, providing lasting relief from the signs and symptoms of dry eye.
Thanks to the combination of trehalose, sodium hyaluronate and carbomer, THEALOZ GEL offers long-term protection, hydration and lubrication of the eye surface.
THEALOZ GEL is gentle on the eyes as it is preservative-free. The absence of preservatives protects ocular tissues and also prevents reactions in users sensitive to preservatives.
Sterile, phosphate-free, hypotonic and pH neutral gel.
