HYLOVIS ® LIPO Dry eyes, dry eye multi – Help with dry eyes:
Patients suffering from dry eyes complain about tired, reddened and burning eyes. Other common symptoms are scratching, uncomfortable pressure and swollen eyelids. The dry eye is widespread and is one of the common diseases in Germany, Great Britain. Approximately 15-17% of the German, Great Britain population suffer from dry eyes - women are affected more often than men.
About 60-80% of patients suffer from the so-called hyperevaporative form of dry eye. This is a disorder of the lipid components of the tear film. The tear film evaporates too much because the protective lipid layer (fatty layer) is damaged. The clinical picture of the so-called meibomian gland dysfunction* is now regarded as one of the main causes of dry eyes. The secretion of the Meibomian glands, which are located on the edge of the eyelid, prevents excessive evaporation of the tear film and at the same time stabilizes it. Meibomian glands that are not functioning optimally and a disruption of the lipid layer lead to a disrupted tear film. The consequence is dry eyes. Eye drops with hyaluronic acid and lipids – such as HYLOVIS ®LIPO multi – successfully proven.
Innovative Dry eyes, dry eye, HYLOVIS lipo multi eye drops combination of active ingredients from hyaluronic acid and lipids
Put simply, the tear film consists of three layers. An outer lipid layer, the aqueous middle layer and the inner mucin layer. The tear film adheres to the surface of the cornea through the mucin or mucus layer. The watery layer forms the middle layer and makes up most of the tear film. It contains not only water but also important nutrients, hyaluronic acid and oxygen to supply the surface of the eye.
The outer lipid layer is produced by the so-called Meibomian glands and prevents the tear fluid from evaporating, thereby stabilizing the tear film.
Thanks to the innovative combination of hyaluronic acid and selected lipids, HYLOVIS ® LIPO multi acts on all three layers of the tear film immediately after application. The lipids close the gaps in the lipid layer and thus stabilize the tear film. HYLOVIS ® LIPO multi can therefore effectively help to alleviate the symptoms of dry eyes.

Dry eyes, dry eye, HYLOVIS lipo multi eye drops FREQUENT QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS
What are the causes of dry eyes?
The causes can be very different. Dry eyes can be due to external influences (e.g. dry environment, air conditioning, ozone, dust), internal influences (e.g. diabetes, rheumatic diseases, hormonal changes) and the use of certain medications (e.g. birth control pills). The composition of the tear film is often disturbed and as a result it evaporates more, which is often due to a meibomian gland dysfunction.
What is Meibomian Gland Dysfunction?
The Meibomian glands are sebaceous glands located on the edge of the eyelids. If there is a meibomian gland dysfunction, these are blocked or inflamed. This disturbs the production of the lipid layer of the tear film, which means that it evaporates more quickly. This can lead to dry eyes. Watery eyes can be an indication of meibomian gland dysfunction.
How long can I store HYLOVIS ® LIPO multi?
The multi-dose vial should be used within 4 months of first opening. HYLOVIS ® LIPO multi may no longer be used after the expiration date .
What is the difference between HYLOVIS ® LIPO multi and HYLOVIS ® LIPO?
The difference is the form of administration: HYLOVIS ® LIPO multi is offered as a 10 ml multi-dose bottle, HYLOVIS ® LIPO as practical single-dose ampoules of 0.4 ml. However, the formulation of the solution contained is the same in both dosage forms. In this way, each user can decide which one he prefers to use.
What else can be done to help with dry eyes? The human body consists of 60 percent water. Water is essential for the body and fulfills a variety of tasks. Therefore, in principle, but also in the case of dry eyes, you should drink enough.
Other tips against dry eyes are:
· Blinking consciously and regularly
· Ventilate the interior regularly and protect the eyes from draughts.
Regular check-ups with the ophthalmologist are also essential for the success of the therapy. In addition, dietary supplements can help maintain normal vision. Despite a balanced diet, it can make sense to supply the body with omega-3 fatty acids in the form of dietary supplements such as OMEGA-3 TRB ® .
