·THREATS ADDRESSED

Built for four daily pressures.

indoor

Dry air

Heated rooms and air-conditioned offices accelerate tear evaporation.

8h+ daily

Screens & blue light

Long focus distances and reduced blink rates leave the corneal surface unprotected.

UV-A · UV-B

Sun exposure

UVA and UVB stress the conjunctiva and accelerate long-term oxidative load.

outdoor

Sport & wind

Wind, perspiration and dust strip the lipid layer at high exposure rates.

/ B · HOW IT WORKS

Three steps. Every day.

01

Tilt

Tilt the head back, look up. Pull the lower lid gently down with a clean finger.

02

Apply

Place a single drop onto the lower conjunctival sac. Avoid touching the eye with the dropper tip.

03

Resume

Close the eye for ten seconds. Resume normal activity. Repeat up to four times daily.
