Product Overview

NovaTears® Eye Drops offer a breakthrough approach for the treatment of evaporative dry eye and Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD). With a unique water-free formula, NovaTears stabilises the tear film by directly targeting the lipid (oil) layer, reducing evaporation and delivering long-lasting relief.

✅ Specifically designed for evaporative dry eye and MGD

✅ Water-free, preservative-free, and phosphate-free

✅ Lightweight, non-blurring, and fast-absorbing

✅ Helps protect and stabilise the tear film's lipid layer

✅ Up to 6 months use after opening

NovaTears is ideal for people whose dry eyes are not relieved by standard water-based drops. Its novel lipid-based formula makes it a game-changer in dry eye management.

Do not use NovaTears while wearing contact lenses. Do not use if you are allergic or sensitive to any ingredient. If you experience eye pain, persistent redness, discharge, sudden vision changes, or symptoms that do not improve, seek professional eye care advice.
