Santen Sante Drycare Eye Drops

Sante Drycare contains three active ingredients for relieving dryness of eye, etc. Chondroitin sulfate sodium, one of active ingredients, retains water and keeps moisture on surface of eye. Taurine and potassium L-aspartate supply nutrients to tissues in eye to facilitate metabolism. Since eyes are sensitive and important part, healthy eyes are completely covered with tears. However, if eyes dry, various unpleasant symptoms such as tired eye may develop. If you feel that your eyes are dry, use Sante Drycare first. In addition, if your eyes are kept dry for an extended period of time, you may develop "dry eye" resulting in damages to cornea and conjunctiva. We recommend consulting with your doctor or pharmacist before developing dry eye.
