Because Life is Too Short for Irritated Eyes

The good news? You don’t have to accept discomfort as your normal. OPTASE dry eye products offer science-backed, optometrist-recommended solutions that bring lasting relief and protect your eyes for years to come.
Your eyes deserve the same care and attention as the rest of your health, and with OPTASE, relief is finally within reach.
Understanding Dry Eye: A Modern Epidemic
Dry eye isn’t just an occasional inconvenience, it’s a condition affecting more than 16 million Americans, and those numbers are climbing thanks to modern lifestyles. Extended screen use, environmental factors, contact lens wear, aging, and certain medications can all contribute.
Common symptoms include:
- Persistent dryness or grittiness
- Burning or stinging sensations
- Light sensitivity
- Blurred or fluctuating vision
- Eye fatigue
Left untreated, dry eye can damage the ocular surface, increase infection risk, and even impact quality of life in significant ways. This is why effective management is critical, and why OPTASE products are changing the game.
What Makes OPTASE Different?
While pharmacy shelves are lined with artificial tears and eye drops, not all products are created equal. OPTASE takes a holistic, medical-grade approach to dry eye treatment:

- Tailored to Every Stage of Dry Eye – From eyelid hygiene to tear film support, the range addresses root causes, not just surface symptoms.
- Backed by Optometric Expertise – Recommended by eye care professionals worldwide for consistent, high-quality results.
- Advanced Delivery Systems – Specialized packaging maintains sterility without preservatives, ensuring safety and freshness.

By addressing the root causes of dry eye from multiple angles, OPTASE creates a foundation for lasting relief instead of temporary fixes.
Why You Shouldn’t Self-Diagnose Dry Eye
Dryness, redness, and irritation could signal other conditions beyond dry eye, such as allergies, infections, or autoimmune disorders. That’s why a professional eye exam is essential. Your optometrist can determine the exact cause and severity of your symptoms, then recommend the right combination of OPTASE products for your needs.
Self-treating without an exam can lead to delayed diagnosis of more serious issues and less effective symptom relief. Think of OPTASE as part of a guided, personalized care plan, never a one-size-fits-all quick fix.
Dry Eye in the Digital Age
One of the fastest-growing causes of dry eye today is Digital Eye Strain. Blinking frequency drops by nearly 60% when using digital devices, leading to faster tear evaporation.
OPTASE products help counteract these effects by:
- Stabilizing the tear film
- Reducing evaporation from prolonged screen time
- Improving comfort during extended device use
If your work or hobbies involve heavy screen time, building a preventative routine with OPTASE can make a major difference in daily comfort.
Who Can Benefit from OPTASE?
While anyone can experience dry eye, certain groups are more likely to benefit from OPTASE:
- Contact Lens Wearers – Reduce discomfort and extend comfortable wear time.
- Post-Surgical Patients – LASIK, cataract, or other eye surgeries often cause temporary dryness.
- Allergy Sufferers – Soothe irritation and maintain tear film stability during allergy season.
- Aging Adults – Tear production naturally declines with age, making supplementation essential.
- Outdoor Workers – Wind, sun, and environmental exposure increase tear evaporation.
