Dry Eye Relief uses healthy, natural ingredients that work together symbiolitically to support all layers of the natural tears.
Nourishes the outer lipid layer with heart-healthy phytosterols, thus acting as a “vapor barrier” against tear evaporation
- Uses a proprietary blend of the preferred triglyceride form of DHA and EPA Omega-3 essential fatty acids from deep fish oil, as well as ALA Omega-3 fatty acid from Borage Oil, Lactoferrin and Circumin. Together, these substances lessen lacrimal gland inflammation, resulting in improved tear film production and reduced tear film surface tension.
- Inner mucin is replenished, which helps to hold the tear film onto the corneal surface
- The phospholipids phopsphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine and sphingomyelin straddle the lipid and salt-water layers, thus improving tear film stability.
