‘CooltearsHydro+’ is a lubricating ophthalmic solution based on cross-linked sodium hyaluronate of high concentration (0.4%) for the relief of dry eye symptoms, ocular discomfort, and the protection of the cornea
Our eyes, especially the conjunctiva and cornea, require specific humidity and temperature to maintain their proper function. Therefore, if you suffer from visual fatigue, your vision is blurred, your eyes sting, are irritated, or feel as if you have grit inside, you may suffer from dry eye syndrome.
This fairly common eye pathology has increased in recent months due to the prolonged use of the mask as a protective measure against the coronavirus.
And it is that the airflow that rises upwards accelerates the evaporation of our tears. The tear film has a protective lipid layer that delays the natural evaporation of liquids, and a flow of hot, humid air destabilizes this protective layer and increases the evaporation of the natural tear film, causing the classic symptoms of dry eye.
In addition, a poor fit of the mask on the bridge of the nose can contribute to exacerbating the discomfort caused by dry eye if it is not perfectly fixed to the face, since the air that we exhale escapes through the upper part of the mask reaching the eye surface.
This upward movement of the air on the surface of the eye causes the tear to evaporate sooner, reducing the lubrication of the ocular surface and, consequently, the lubricating function of the tear. All this makes ophthalmologists recommend increasing the frequency of use of treatment with artificial tears in patients with dry eyes.

During the pandemic, there has been an increase in the prevalence of eye pathologies, in some cases related to the use of masks, manifesting greater irritation, tearing, and red eyes.
Also, the use of contact lenses is closely related to dry eye. Artificial tears act as a lubricant between the lens and the ocular surface (the cornea) to protect the eyes. When there is a decrease in tears, the cornea can be injured, which in turn can reduce its resistance to bacteria and lead to serious corneal infections. In addition to the proper maintenance of the lenses, regular check-ups with an ophthalmologist should be done.
In this sense, ‘CooltearsHydro+’ is a lubricating ophthalmic solution based on cross-linked sodium hyaluronate of high concentration (0.4%) for the relief of dry eye symptoms, and eye discomfort, and the protection of the cornea.
Cross-linked sodium hyaluronate provides the product with high viscoelasticity, which ensures a high degree of hydration and permanence on the ocular surface and provides long-lasting relief of dry eye symptoms, such as pain, burning, and stinging, grittiness, tiredness, and heaviness or tearing of the eyes.
This artificial tear is an aqueous solution so it does not cause blurred vision and is very well tolerated, does not contain preservatives or phosphates, is compatible with contact lenses, and has a multidose bottle format.
In conclusion, ‘CooltearsHydro+’ provides great benefits to patients, among which are greater hydration and permanence on the ocular surface, allowing one instillation per day which improves the quality of life of any type of dry eye, provides immediate freshness and prolonged symptom relief.
