Pre- and post-surgery eye drops

Rayner has launched AEON, which the company describes as the first family of pre- and post-surgery eye drops, to help patients manage their condition and improve their visual outcomes. Rayner say AEON Protect Plus has a unique cross-linked sodium hyaluronate (HA) formulation to provide an artificial tear for relief of moderate-to-severe dry eye. AEON REPAIR is purposely designed for use in the weeks after surgery and combines sodium HA with vitamins A and E to lubricate, soothe and aid the repair of the surface of eyes. Both AEON REPAIR and AEON PROTECT PLUS are stored in multi-dose dropper devices, which allow the solutions to stay sterile, without the need of preservatives, say the company. Tim Clover, CEO of Rayner, said: “As recent research shows, almost two-thirds of patients suffer from dry eye disease prior to cataract surgery and this can significantly hinder recovery and long-term visual results. www.rayner.com/AEON
