Effective Dry Eye Products Designed to Help Patients Manage Discomforting Symptoms

Dry eye conditions affect over 340 million people worldwide, causing intermittent or chronic redness, irritation, tearing, fatigue, and other discomforting eye symptoms. While over-the-counter products for dry eye exist, they may not provide the symptom relief that many patients seek to improve eye comfort and regain their quality of life. After accurate diagnosis and evaluation of dry eye conditions, ophthalmologists, optometrists, and other eye care professionals can rely on I-MED Pharma for dry eye management options designed to provide relief for mild to severe, intermittent, and chronic dry eye conditions.

I-MED Pharma is a global leader in dry eye diagnosis and management, offering a vast array of dry eye products available to help alleviate your patients’ dry eyes. Depending on the severity and frequency of symptoms that patients are experiencing, ophthalmologists and optometrists can choose the most suitable management option for the ocular health of their patients.

Viscoadaptive Eye Drops

Viscoadaptive eye drops enhance the three natural layers of the tear film: the mucin layer, the aqueous layer and the lipid layer to give patients extra lubrication when their own natural tears are lacking in quality or quantity.

I-MED Pharma’s line of I-DROP® viscoadaptive eye drops are premium eye drops that effectively and quickly help to relieve dry eye symptoms. The I-DROP® line of products combine essential biopolymers that are responsible for the long-lasting comfort and relief from dry eye symptoms. Whether patients require relief for moderate, severe, or evaporative dry eye, the collection of I-DROP® products promotes excellent coating and recoating of the ocular surface with every blink, while delivering superior moisturizing and lubrication for enhanced patient comfort.

I-DROP® PUR – ADVANCED RELIEF!

I-DROP® PUR is the only contact-lens-compatible, viscoadaptive, and preservative-free artificial tear available on the market. Containing 0.18% viscoadaptive HA, this artificial tear is formulated to provide immediate and long-lasting comfort and relief. I-DROP® PUR is recommended for patients suffering from mild to moderate chronic dry eye disease.

I-DROP® PUR GEL – SUPERIOR RELIEF!

I-DROP® PUR GEL offers superior moisturizing and lubrication of the ocular surface and is recommended for patients with moderate to severe chronic dry eye disease.

It is one of the most advanced hydrating and lubricating preservative-free eye drops available on the market. I-DROP® MGD contains 0.20% viscoadaptive HA and superior osmoprotectants and bioprotectants which support the stabilization and enhancement of the lipid layer while reducing evaporation of the tear film.

Ocular Hygiene

Implementing an ocular hygiene routine is essential for patients experiencing eye irritation, dryness, discomfort, or other dry eye symptoms. Proper cleansing of the eyelids and eyelashes is key. The purpose of the lids and lashes is to trap debris, toxins, and other particles, and prevent these foreign bodies from getting onto the ocular surface. If they aren’t properly cleaned and cared for, this can lead to an increase in dry eye symptoms or to other problematic conditions like Demodex mite infestations.

I-MED Pharma’s line of ocular hygiene products is routinely recommended by optometrists and ophthalmologists for patients suffering from dry eye or Meibomian Gland Disease (MGD), as well as for those interested in enhancing their daily ocular hygiene routine. For patients requiring deeper cleansing, there is an I-LID ’N LASH® formulation that contains 5% tea tree oil (TTO).

I-LID ’N LASH®

I-LID ’N LASH® is a paraben-free eye hygiene product that effectively cleans and hydrates both the eyelashes and eyelids. Available in 2 formats (pre-soaked wipes & pump), I-LID ‘N LASH® is easy-to-use and effective at removing ocular debris.

I-LID ’N LASH® PLUS

Adding I-LID ’N LASH® PLUS to an ocular hygiene routine helps clean eyelids and lashes more effectively while increasing the effectiveness of hydrating artificial tears.  I-LID ’N LASH® PLUS can be used by patients requiring deeper cleansing as it contains 5% tea tree oil (TTO).

I-LID ’N LASH® HOCL

Used daily, and in combination with I-LID ’N LASH® wipes or pump, I-LID ’N LASH® HOCL CLEANSING SPRAY cleans and hydrates the eyes to maintain optimal lid and lash health. Spray and Go! No need to rinse off!

I-LID ’N LASH® EYE MAKEUP REMOVER

An eye makeup remover specifically formulated for dry eyes that leaves skin feeling smooth and hydrated. Clinically proven to remove makeup and safe for the tear film, I-LID ’N LASH® EYE MAKEUP REMOVER can be used in conjunction with our full line of ocular hygiene cleansers.

Punctum Plugs

Ongoing dryness prompts the eye to produce more tears, but sometimes the tears are unable to adequately moisten the eyes. Tear ducts often play a role in dry eye symptoms — if fluid is draining too quickly from the eye, it can cause burning, scratchiness, and dryness in the eyes. When viscoadaptive artificial tears do not provide patients with increased comfort and relief, eye care professionals often recommend punctum plugs. Punctum plugs are tiny devices that can be inserted into tear ducts to block drainage. As a result, the eye’s tear film and surface moisture is increased to help relieve certain forms of dry eye.

I-MED Pharma carries punctum plugs in a variety of sizes, in both sterile and non-sterile selections so that eye care professionals can easily find the ones best suited for the needs of their patients.

I-PLUG® Punctum Plugs

The I-PLUG® is one of the most effective punctum plugs for dry eye symptoms. This medical-grade silicone plug is designed to provide reduction or elimination of tear drainage through the tear ducts. The proprietary shaft design makes for easy insertion and proper anatomic fit, while the low-profile dome enhances patient comfort and symptom relief.

I-PLUG® FIT Punctum Plugs

I-PLUG® FIT punctum plugs are designed for simple sizing, easy insertion, and patient comfort. The punctum plug is molded from medical-grade silicone and is available in different sizes, making it easy to find a size for any patient. This punctum plug also features a flexible fit nose design that makes it easy to insert into the tear duct and provides superior retention.

Dry Eye Ointment

Eye ointments are an effective remedy against dry eyes. They help stimulate and stabilize the lacrimal fluid and support the lubrication of the cornea and conjunctiva. While artificial tears are recommended for dry eye relief throughout the day, eye ointments can be used in conjunction with, or as an alternative to artificial tears. Eye ointments are applied directly to the conjunctival sac. Dry eye gels and ointments tend to stay in the eyes longer, so they’re recommended for overnight use.

I-MED Pharma offers an effective, long-lasting dry eye ointment that delivers superior moisturizing and protection of the ocular surface to provide soothing relief of dry eye symptoms, such as soreness, irritation, or a gritty sensation on the eyes and acts as a barrier against moisture loss.

I-DEFENCE®

Patients that seek relief of severe dry eye disease and Lagophthalmos, the inability to close the eyelids completely, may benefit from I-DEFENCE®. This long-lasting, lubricating nighttime dry eye ointment contains 0.40% sodium hyaluronate and is extremely effective at providing maximum, long-lasting relief of dry eye symptoms.

Nutrition

Nutrition plays a big role in your health, including your vision. Consuming foods rich in Omega-3 fatty acids, namely, eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), is essential to ocular health. However, most patients are not getting the recommended daily amount of these essential nutrients from diet alone. Certain nutrition deficiencies can lead to dry eye disease as well as other eye conditions such as macular degeneration and vision loss. To supplement a patient’s diet that is lacking in Omega-3 fatty acids, eye care professionals can recommend a nutritional vitamin to balance out what is missing.

It is important to note that not all Omega-3 supplements are created equally. I-MED Pharma’s nutritional supplements are formulated to provide the most important fatty acids (EPA, DHA & DPA) in the re-esterified triglyceride form (rTG) form which means that they don’t contain toxins or alcohol.

I-VU® OMEGA-3 PLUS

I-VU® OMEGA-3 PLUS is a highly purified and concentrated Omega-3 supplement that addresses a patient’s dry eye symptoms systematically as opposed to topically. This supplement for dry eyes is formulated to not only provide dry eye relief and improve symptoms, but to support proper tear function in adults as well.

I-VU® OMEGA-3

I-VU® OMEGA-3 is the first and only formulation for dry eyes with high daily levels of Omega-3, GLA and Vitamin D3. This highly purified and concentrated liquid supplement is recommended for the maintenance of good health. Studies indicate GLA increases tear production in certain patients and Vitamin D3 may offer protection against the development of dry eye disease.

Therapeutic Mask

Eye care professionals often recommend moist heat therapy as a form of supplementary treatment for people suffering from dry eyes and other conditions of the eyelid. Hot or cold compresses can provide immediate relief from dry eye discomfort, and consistent use over time can help increase blood circulation, stimulate lipid oil production, and reduce tear evaporation, thereby improving overall ocular health.

I-MED Pharma offers a unique dry eye relief mask that is designed to alleviate symptoms associated with blepharitis, dry eye disease, meibomian gland disease (MGD), styes and chalazia, as well as headaches, sinus pressure, tension, swelling and puffiness.

I-RELIEF™

HOT & COLD THERAPY EYE MASK

The I-RELIEF™ Hot & Cold Therapy Eye Mask can help patients manage their dry eye condition from the mildest of symptoms to more serious conditions. Featuring unique temperature-retaining and naturally-hydrating ThermaBeads™, this eye mask for dry eyes allows for long-lasting hot or cold therapy.

IRPL® TECHNOLOGY

Intense regulated pulsed light (IRPL) therapy is a relatively new form of dry eye treatment. IRPL® technology is used to stimulate the meibomian glands to improve their function. Meibomian glands that are not functioning properly can eventually lead to gland loss or atrophy, which leads to long-term and severe dry eye symptoms.

I-MED Pharma is a supplier of the first medical device in the world using IRPL® that has been specifically designed for the treatment of dry eyes due to meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). This easy-to-use device is tailor-made for optometrists and ophthalmologists.

E>EYE

The E>Eye device with patented IRPL® technology is used by eye care professionals as a long-term solution to help alleviate dry eye symptoms. E>Eye is designed specifically to treat dry eyes due to meibomian gland dysfunction.  IRPL® treatments lead to an improvement in the function of the meibomian glands within a relatively short amount of time.  The device is very compact and easy to use.  Treatment sessions can begin within a few seconds and take only a few minutes to perform.
