Vizmed Light, ophthalmic hydrogel 0.1% 15 ml

Sodium hyaluronate is a natural polymer that is present in human eye tissues.

The effect of VISMED® light is due to the viscoelasticity property and the ability of sodium hyaluronate to bind and retain water.

VISMED® light is characterized by high viscosity in the absence of blinking movement and low viscosity during blinking to ensure efficient distribution of the product on the eye surface preventing eye dryness and irritation.

Sodium Hyaluronate has an affinity to the tear mucoglycoprotein which helps to increase tear film stability.

VISMED® light as well as tear fluid contains calcium, magnesium and potassium ions required to maintain the normal structure and function of the eye cornea.

The inclusion of sodium citrate into VISMED® light composition helps maintain viscoelastic properties in the presence of other ions and prevent precipitation.

The leading mechanism in the development of dry eye syndrome is hyperosmolarity of tears and instability of the tear film.

VISMED® light is able to compensate for tear hyperosmolarity due to its hypotonicity
VISMED® light facilitates regeneration of superficial keratitis by increasing cell migration.

Due to a unique combination of components VISMED® light ensures long-term protection of the cornea and relief of dry eye symptoms by restoring normal properties of the tear film.

Indications

VISMED® light ophthalmic solution in multi-dose 15 ml dropper flask is used for elimination of a dry eye feeling and eye irritation in cases of dry eye syndrome

and/or damages of the anterior eye surface due to superficial keratitis and Sjögren’s syndrome, primary dry eye syndrome.

And also for eye surface moisturizing in case of complaints of eye dryness, foreign body in the eye, eye fatigue caused by hard or soft contact lenses, prolonged work with

computers, exposure to air conditioning, dust, dry air, wind or cold.

How to take, the dosage

Before first use, turn the screw cap of the bottle counterclockwise until the sealing ring is completely detached.

Tilt your head back, position the dropper of the container over the eye and with the index finger of one hand pull down the lower eyelid.

Slightly press the container and drip 1-2 drops into the conjunctival sac of the eye, unless otherwise recommended.

When blinking the fluid evenly spreads over the eye surface forming a protective coating on the eye surface.

Preservatives contained in VISMED® light are non-toxic therefore the solution can be applied while wearing any type of contact lenses (hard or soft) without removing them during the injection process.

Interaction

It is not recommended to use VISMED® light simultaneously with other ophthalmic products as this may affect their effectiveness.

Special Instructions

Avoid contact of the open container tip with the eye surface and hands. After opening the bottle the solution can be used for 3 months as VISMED® light is carefully balanced and ensures sterility of the solution for the above mentioned time.

After using VISMED® light turn the cap clockwise until it stops.

Otherwise the manufacturer does not guarantee the sterility of the solution as it increases the risk of infection. VISMED® light should not be used if the container is visibly damaged.

If complaints of “dryness” and eye irritation persist after injection of VISMED® light, consult a physician.

Contraindications

Hypersensitivity to one of the solution components.

Side effects

In very rare cases, there may be irritation of the conjunctiva, a feeling of “foreign body” in the eye, redness or burning of the eye, short-term “blurring” of vision.
