Hylo-Dual Eye Drops
The dual mode of action of sodium hyaluronate and ectoine provides intensive lubrication of the cornea and conjunctiva and prevents the excessive evaporation of the tear film. The resulting stabilisation of the tear film, especially that of the lipid layer, relieves irritated eyes. Therefore, the symptoms of inflammation or those caused by allergy, like burning and itching, disappear.
An overview of the special properties of HYLO DUAL® eye drops:
- Intensive lubrication for dry and irritated eyes
- Stabilization of the lipid layer of the tear film
- Lasting protection against renewed dryness
- Supporting the body’s own barrier against germs, allergy-inducing substances and irritants.
- Contain ectoine, which relieves inflammatory processes
- Free from phosphates and preservatives
HYLO DUAL® eye drops are particularly well-suited to dry eyes with additional irritation due to hypersensitivity reactions.
Ectoine lubricates, protects and fights against inflammation
HYLO DUAL® eye drops derive their special effectiveness from the additive ectoine. This has excellent water-binding properties and so forms a particularly stable film of fluid on the surface of the eye. In addition, ectoine also has a stabilising effect on the oily layer of the tear film. In that way, the eyes are better protected against fluid evaporation and drying out. Inflammatory symptoms are thus alleviated by ectoine and the stressed tissue is soothed.
Ectoine in nature
Ectoine is a natural substance which, among other things, is formed by bacteria which can survive under extreme environmental conditions. Bacteria, which for example are present in heavily salted waters, produce ectoine to protect themselves from drying out and to preserve their vital cell components from the influences of the hostile surroundings.
