About This Product
Optimel Manuka Honey Dry Eye Drops are designed to provide effective relief for moderate to severe dry eyes, blepharitis, and eye inflammation. These eye drops contain standardised Manuka honey, which is known for its powerful antibacterial and anti-inflammatory properties, making it ideal for maintaining eye health and supporting natural healing processes.
Manuka honey creates a unique microenvironment on the surface of the eye that helps to reduce bacterial growth and protect the tear film, enhancing eye comfort. This product is particularly beneficial for people who suffer from Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD), a common cause of dry eyes. It can help manage the symptoms of dry eye by restoring moisture, improving tear quality, and soothing inflammation.
