New natural help for dry eyes from beehives with Optimel Manuka Honey eye drops.
Health food stores recommend Manuka honey from New Zealand for sore throats and colds as it has higher anti-bacterial activity compared to normal honey.
Now this has been formulated into an eye drop (RRP £15.00) to help stabilise the surface health of the eye from dry eye symptoms such as sore, irritated eyes and eyelids. Currently available in the UK exclusively from Butterflies Eyecare.
Reduced tear production and meibomian gland disease can increase the bacteria present in the eye, contributing to the tear film instability and eye surface damage. Using Optimel Manuka Dry Eye Drops 3 times a day can significantly improve the situation within a month.
When applied to the surface of the eye, Optimel Manuka Dry Eye Drops lower the acid level (pH), acting on bacteria that may potentially damage the surface of the eye. This micro-environment supports healing and prevents further damage. They are designed to be used AS WELL AS lubricating eye drops, not as an alternative.
Please note: transient stinging may occur - please see our website for more information before use including cautions and the preservative used.

Here is some help for annoying eye floaters. We are asked about these a lot in the office by customers. Also, as an optician, James sees many patients with 'floaters' in their eyes. These are annoying particles or threads that appear to float across our line of vision throughout the day.
As we welcome in 2023, it is a good time to reflect on what we can all do in our general life to help maintain healthy eyes.
We came away with two 'gongs': GOLD in the Best New Lip Product category for our Eye Care Cosmetics Nourishing lip balm; and HIGHLY COMMENDED in the Best New Eye or Brows Product category for our Eye Care Cosmetics Intense mascara.
