The optimal solutions for ocular dryness experienced while wearing corrective lenses aim to alleviate discomfort and maintain clear vision. These products are formulated to rehydrate the eye’s surface and provide a lubricating layer between the contact lens and the cornea. An example would be a preservative-free artificial tear specifically designed for contact lens wearers experiencing dryness after several hours of use.
Addressing dry eye is crucial for contact lens wearers to ensure comfort, prevent corneal damage, and promote long-term eye health. Historically, simple saline solutions were used for lens rewetting, but modern formulations offer advanced lubrication and moisture retention. The development of compatible products has significantly improved the wearing experience and reduced lens intolerance.
