Viscotears Tri Action eye drops
Viscotears Tri Action eye drops contain an oily microemulsion for the treatment and prevention of signs and symptoms of moderate or severe dry eye, especially in conjunction with meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD).
Tear film breakdown can lead to excessive evaporation of the tear film which, in turn, leads to hyper osmolarity of the tear film (where the tear film becomes too salty). Tear film instability and hyper osmolarity can induce inflammation and damage to the surface of the eye.
Viscotears Tri Action eye drops have been designed to counteract all major factors that contribute to dry eye.
- Sodium hyaluronate, trehalose and glycerol bind water in the tear film and bring tear film osmolarity to a safe level allowing the ocular surface to recover from damage.
- Sacha inchi seed oil strengthens the tear film's lipid layer to prevent further evaporation and hyper osmolarity.
- The combination of oil and high-molecular-weight sodium hyaluronate helps retain and stabilise key layers of the tear film.
- Sodium hyaluronate, trehalose and natural antioxidants of sacha inchi seed oil help the cells in the surface of the eye recover from inflammatory damage.
Regular use relieves dry eye symptoms such as itching, burning and foreign body sensation caused by environmental factors such as dry air, wind, smoke, air pollution, excessive light, visual display work, ocular surgery or contact lens use.
The special Ophthalmic Squeeze Dispenser (OSD) bottle ensures the contents remain free from contaminants without the need for preservatives. This means the product can be used for up to 6 months after first opening, potentially reducing waste.
In addition, the lack of preservatives means contact lens wearers can use either product without removing their lenses.

Reccommended by my opt due to evaporative dry eye. They helped with dry feeling during dsy. Not with morning dryness though.
They are not a cure for me personally and I have exhausted most otc. Trying oral remedies at the moment like flaxseed oil caps and noticing an improvment already.

I have very sensitive eyes and I’m allergic to a lot of the ingredients in other eye drops. My optician recommended Viscotears Tri Action, which he checked does not contain any allergy ingredients, and really helps during the summer months in particular when pollen is high.

Dry eyes, Meibomian gland dysfunctionRated 2 out of 5 stars4 months agoReally hard to apply
The bottle has one huge issue. As you use up the drops, the bottle becomes more and more sucked in, to the point that it becomes very hard to squeeze further in order to extract drops. I had to dispose of the bottle at about half the capacity because it was almost impossible to get out any more drops.

These sting when first used. After a few minutes the stinging stops and the drops last longer than anything else I have used. I will buy again.
