Description
SYSTANE® BALANCE Moisturizing Eye Drops is a lipid-based moisturizing product that relieves the symptoms of dry eye syndrome. SYSTANE BALANCE moisturizing eye drops moisturize the surface of the eye, enrich and stabilize the lipid layer of the tear film and reduce excessive tear evaporation. SYSTANE BALANCE moisturizing eye drops provide long-lasting relief from dry eye symptoms such as burning and irritation.
SYSTANE® BALANCE moisturizing eye drops were specially developed for patients with dry eye syndrome due to Meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD).1 The unique formula contains the LipiTech™2 system and an active demulcent (emollient). This patented formula helps to restore an important component of tears - the lipid layer - over time, thus protecting against dry eye symptoms for longer. The drops are supplied in 10 ml bottles.
