A. Vogel Eye Drops are a 100% natural solution for those times when your own production of tears is insufficient or has been overtaxed by your environment or activities.
Product Notes:
Would that there were no dry eyes in the house, but environmental (cold or windy outdoor air, or dry indoor air), behavioral (staring intently at our screen devices blinking more infrequently than normal), biological (drops in estrogen levels), and nutritional factors (such as deficiencies in Vitamins A or D) can all prevent the eyes from staying sufficiently moist.
Fortunately, you can now get fast-acting relief from extremely dry, irritated, burning or just plain tired eyes wherever you are – even without having to take your contact lenses out! – and not have to worry about inadvertently infecting yourself by reusing an ordinary dropper bottle.
A. Vogel Eye Drops feature two active ingredients:
* Sodium hyaluronate (a.k.a. hyaluronic acid), a polysaccharide (a string of sugar molecules) capable of holding 1,000 times its weight in water, to help maintain a liquid layer over the eyeball to moisturize, protect, and refresh it, while relieving the irritating symptoms of burning and grittiness; and,
* Eyebright, a small type of flower with antioxidant, antimicrobial, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory properties, to help protect and nourish the eyelid.
These Eye Drops contain no preservatives (which is why they need to be used within 6 months of opening) and are phosphate free, and, unlike many types of eyedrops, they are contact lens friendly, so you use them while you are outside your home, or just continue with whatever you were doing without having to go take your lenses out.
Finally, unlike ordinary eye drops which come in a standard plastic bottle which tends to dispense many drops in rapid succession (which can dribble down your face or ruin your mascara) and whose tips may become contaminated with viruses or bacteria after multiple uses (so you risk infecting yourself), these come in an airtight, self-sterilizing container which only dispenses a single drop at a time (which is all you need). This innovative delivery system is somewhat reminiscent of a 'puffer' style metered dose asthma inhaler (except non-aerosol).
