I highly recommended Hyabak®. It has far exceeded our patients' expectations to help dry eyes and contact lens related irritation. We often hear "This is the best eye drop that I have ever tried" when they return to purchase more.
Part of the magic of Hyabak® is in the bottle. The special, filtered bottle allows for the drop to be non-preserved. This means that it is very gentle to the ocular surface and can be used many times a day if required. Hyabak®'s bottle also has a long shelf life of 90 days once opened. This is 3 times longer than a standard bottles' shelf life (30days once opened). Non-preserved drops are typically delivered in single dose vials costing much more. Each Hyabak® bottle contains ~300 drops.
Hyabak® is not the answer for all forms of dry eye. Please see our DRY EYE INFORMATION PAGE and/or speak to your eye care professional about the correct dry eye therapy for you.
You can order Hyabak® by clicking 'Add to Cart' below and following the instructions. We will ship out your product ASAP. Note that our online eCommerce name is "mEYEspa".

Product details: Hyabak® is a preservative free hypotonic solution designed to decrease signs and symptoms of dryness.
