Hycosan Extra has been formulated with 0.2% hyaluronic acid (twice the concentration of Hycosan). This increase in strength gives a solution which is four times more viscous than Hycosan, but still causes minimal blurring of vision. This increase in viscosity, which allows a subsequent increase in duration of action, makes Hycosan Extra ideal for more severe cases of dry eye.

Hycosan Extra - now one click delivers even more.

  • Highly viscous solution, with little or no blurring of vision
  • Preservative and phosphate free
  • Suitable for more severe cases of dry eye
  • An alternative to eye ointments during the day
  • Unique patented delivery system
  • Compatible with ComplEye, the easy to use compliance aid.

    Best eye drops around

    Made a huge difference to the time I can tolerate wearing contact lenses. Also good to use at any time during the day to refresh eyes when wearing specs.

    Excellent product. Highly recommend.

    Works great for me.

    Diagnosed with severe dry eye about 2 years ago. In addition to daily use of prescription drops and serum tears, I have tried many over the counter preservative free drops. Heard about Hycosan in a dry eye forum and decided to give it a try. Hycosan Extra has become my go to drop, using it to get my eyes open first thing in the morning, then every to 2 to 3 hours. Hycosan doesn't cause me immediate irritation like the other drops I've tried. Unfortunately it is not sold in the US so I order from Butterflies. Have tried a similarly formulated products both from the US and Europe, but Hycosan is the only one that doesn't worsen my symptoms .
