OPTIVE™ Lubricant Eye Drops
Dry eye affects an estimated 21 million people in the United States.1 OPTIVE™ Lubricant Eye Drops is a next generation over-the-counter artificial tear, with an advanced dual-action formula that lubricates and hydrates eyes to provide long-lasting relief from dry eye symptoms.2 Introduced in the United States in 2006, OPTIVE™ works in two ways to relieve the symptoms of dry eye by moisturizing the surface of the eye while also hydrating the eye at the cellular level where dry eye starts.
OPTIVE™ can be used as often as needed to relieve and treat intermittent dry eye symptoms, including irritation or dryness, a sandy or gritty sensation and/or a burning or stinging sensation. OPTIVE™ is best suited for the relief of intermittent dry eye symptoms and is available in a convenient multi-use bottle at locations where over-the-counter eye care products are sold. If you are using any artificial tear on a regular basis for relief from dry eye symptoms, ask your eye care professional about additional treatment options.
