Overview
Systane Balance Lubricant Eye Drop is designed to provide temporary relief from burning, irritation and discomfort associated with dry eyes. The thicker gel-drop formulation helps create a protective lubricating layer over the eye surface, making it particularly suitable when more intensive dry-eye relief is required.
The formula contains Polyethylene Glycol 400 0.4% and Propylene Glycol 0.3% as ophthalmic lubricants. It also uses hydroxypropyl guar technology to help form a soothing gel-like layer on the ocular surface, providing longer-lasting lubrication compared with lighter artificial tear formulations.
Key Benefits
- Relieves Dry Eyes: Helps provide temporary relief from dryness and discomfort caused by insufficient natural tears.
- Lubricates the Eye Surface: Dextran 70 and hypromellose help supplement the natural tear film and maintain moisture on the surface of the eye.
- Soothes Irritation: Helps relieve minor burning, irritation and discomfort associated with dry eyes.
- Protects Against Further Irritation: Forms a lubricating layer over the eye surface to help protect against additional dryness and irritation.
- Artificial Tear Formula: Combines two established ophthalmic lubricants—Dextran 70 0.1% and Hypromellose 0.3%.
