Sno* tears contains a lubricant that is used as a substitute for natural tears. Your eyes will normally produce just enough natural tears to allow them to move easily and comfortably.
If your eyes do not produce enough tears they can become dry, red and painful. It can also be used in patients who have artificial eyes. Sno* tears will help keep your eyes
comfortable.
Before you use your eye drops Sno* tears is used for the symptomatic treatment of “dry eye“, which is a dehydration of the surface of the eye
resulting from disturbances in tear secretion or tear quality.
The dry eye condition can also be caused when it is not possible to close your eye lids either partly or completely.
If Sno* tears is used at the same time with other eye drops / eye ointments, there should be an application time interval of approximately 15 minutes between use of such other medications and Sno* tears should always be the last.
