Tears Naturale Information

Tears Naturale is typically used for general eye irritation. Its primary use is to treat symptoms such as eye itching, redness, and a burning or gritty sensation due to dry eye syndrome (keratoconjunctivitis sicca). It’s also often recommended for minor eye discomfort caused by environmental factors such as wind, sun, or prolonged use of digital screens. It is an ocular lubricant (artificial tears) which contains two active ingredients: dextran 70 (0.1%) and hypromellose (0.3%). It works through a water-soluble polymeric system called Duasorb. This system appears to interact with the existing tear film, promoting better wetting of the corneal surface. Increasing the viscosity of the eye fluid helps the solution adhere to the cornea longer than standard saline drops do. It keeps the surface hydrated and facilitates smoother eyelid movement.

Dry eye syndrome is essentially a loss of homeostasis in the tear film. It often involves either insufficient tear production or a film that evaporates too quickly, leaving the corneal nerves exposed and prone to inflammation. This is what causes the associated characteristic burning or gritty sensation. Tears Naturale helps by temporarily replacing the missing aqueous components and increasing the tear film's overall volume. This helps lower the osmolarity of tears and reduce friction during blinking. While it doesn't necessarily address the underlying cause of the reduced tear production, it protects the cornea from mechanical damage and desiccation that occur when the eye stays dry for too long.
