PRESCRIPTION EYE DROPS
USING ARTIFICIAL TEARS OFTEN?
If you're using over-the-counter artificial tears often, you may have a type of Chronic Dry Eye disease that may benefit from prescription treatment.
Chronic Dry Eye (keratoconjunctivitis sicca) is a medical condition that needs ongoing management rather than a short-term treatment. It can be caused by advanced age, contact lens wear, certain medications, eye diseases or other medical conditions.
One type of Chronic Dry Eye is characterized by decreased tear production due to inflammation. For this type of Chronic Dry Eye, RESTASIS® Opthalmic Emulsion helps increase your eyes' natural ability to produce tears.
If you think you think you may have Chronic Dry Eye, don’t wait until your next annual eye appointment. Make an appointment with your eye doctor and ask about RESTASIS®.
