Why eye doctors recommend it
Most dry eye supplements rely on fish oil alone. HydroEye goes further by pairing omega-3 EPA and DHA with GLA, a unique omega fatty acid from black currant seed oil that is hard to get from your diet. Together with vitamins A, C and E, vitamin B6 and magnesium, these nutrients support all layers of a healthy tear film. HydroEye was studied in a peer-reviewed clinical trial, which is why many eye doctors recommend it for patients with dry, itchy eyes.*
Is HydroEye right for me?
- A good fit if your eyes often feel dry, itchy, gritty or tired.*
- A good fit if your eye doctor recommended a dry eye supplement that goes beyond fish oil alone.
- A good fit if you want a clinically tested formula with GLA, omega-3s and antioxidants in one.
