What are Thealoz Duo Dry Eye Drops?
Thealoz Duo Dry Eye Drops are an effective treatment for dry eyes, designed to protect, hydrate and lubricate the surface of the eye. Clinical studies have shown that these eye drops improve the thickness of the tear film for at least 4 hours, 6 times longer than regular sodium hyaluronate eye drops alone. Thealoz Duo Dry Eye Drops are preservative-free and suitable for contact lens wearers.
How to use these eye drops
Use 1 drop of Thealoz Duo Dry Eye Drops in each affected eye from 4 to 6 times a day and always seal the lid tightly after use. To use eye drops effectively, tilt your head back slightly and hold the bottle upside down near to your eye without letting it touch your eye. Release a drop into your eye and close your eye for a minute or two. It may help to press gently on the side of your nose where the corner of your eye meets your nose, as this will prevent the drops from draining out through the nostril.
