Description
Hycosan Dual Lubricating Eye Drops (7.5ml) are sterile, phosphate-free and preservative-free eye drops designed to moisturise the cornea and conjunctiva, help reduce excessive tear evaporation, and stabilise the tear film. This dual-action approach helps relieve symptoms of dry eye disease as well as itching and burning associated with allergy.
Dual-action formula
- Hyaluronic acid 0.05% provides even, long-lasting lubrication of the eye surface.
- Ectoin 2% supports a protective, moisture-binding barrier on the ocular surface and helps stabilise the lipid layer of the tear film to reduce evaporation and irritation from environmental triggers (e.g., pollen, animal hair, house dust).
Suitable for
- Dry, irritated, gritty-feeling eyes
- Dry eye symptoms with allergy-related itching/burning
- People who wear contact lenses (see “How to use”)
How to Use
For use in the eyes only.
How often
- Adults and children aged 6 years and over: instil 1 drop into each eye 3 times a day.
- If you need to use it more than 10 times per day or symptoms are severe, seek regular advice from an optometrist/ophthalmologist.
Priming (first use)
- Before first use, turn the bottle tip downward and press the base repeatedly until the first drop appears.
Step-by-step application (COMOD® bottle)
- Remove cap.
- Hold bottle upside down: thumb on the shoulder, fingers on the base.
- Pull down the lower eyelid and look up.
- Avoid touching the tip to eye/skin. Press the base quickly and firmly to release one drop.
- Close eyes gently to spread the drop evenly.
- Replace cap immediately; ensure the dropper tip is dry.
Contact lenses
- Can be used while wearing contact lenses; after inserting lenses, wait about 30 minutes before applying to reduce the chance of intolerance reactions with lens-care products.
Using with other eye products
- Leave at least 30 minutes between other eye drops and Hycosan Dual, and use Hycosan Dual last. Eye ointments should be used after Hycosan Dual.
