NovaTears Lubricating Eye Drops 3mL | For Dry and Irritated Eyes

NovaTears is a preservative-free, phosphate-free, water-free ocular lubricant formulated to stabilise the tear film and relieve symptoms of dry, irritated eyes. Its single active, perfluorohexyloctane (EyeSol), spreads rapidly across the ocular surface to reinforce the lipid layer, help reduce tear evaporation, and provide long-lasting comfort. The lightweight drop has a silky feel, minimal blurring, and is suitable for frequent daily use. The compact 3mL multi-dose bottle is easy to carry and can be used for up to six months after opening when handled as directed.
