Advanced Medical Optics (AMO) claims that its advanced formula for blink Tears lubricating eye drops includes a blend of ingredients naturally found in the eye. The product is said to provide long-lasting relief with less blurring of vision, restore tear film with each blink and improve tear film stability. AMO plans to launch blink Tears lubricating eye drops in Europe in the second half of 2008.
Jim Mazzo, chairman and CEO of AMO, said: “The introduction of blink Tears lubricating eye drops is our first entree into the dry eye category and marks an important expansion of the AMO’s complete refractive solution of eye care products. It will be used to relieve mild to moderate dry eye whether used alone or in conjunction with ophthalmic pharmaceutical therapies.”
