NEW THEALIPID® EYE DROPS FROM THÉA PROVIDE LONG-LASTING SYMPTOM RELIEF OF DRY EYE

KEELE, JUNE 2023: Théa Pharmaceuticals has launched TheaLipid®; the newest addition to their bestselling preservative-free dry eye care range (RRP: £15.49). TheaLipid® is clinically proven to provide long-lasting relief from symptoms of Dry Eye Disease, Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD) and Blepharitis.[2] 86% of Dry Eye Disease cases involve lipid layer disruption, with factors including high screen use, hormonal changes and MGD diagnoses contributing to lipid layer quality. TheaLipid® has been shown to restore the lipid layer and provide long-term relief of symptoms such as grittiness, tiredness, redness, watery, streaming eyes, and eye irritation, after only 14 days of use.1 

TheaLipid® is an eye drop that works with a 3-in-1 formula of natural soybean phospholipids, medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs) and glycerol to lubricate, restore and stabilise the tear film. This combination restores and protects the lipid layer, controls tear evaporation and provides long-lasting relief of Dry Eye symptoms. TheaLipid® is suitable for contact lens wearers, and it is recommended to apply the drops 15 minutes before inserting or after removing lenses. It is also advised to use 1-2 drops in the morning and/or evening.

“Eye conditions including Dry Eye Disease and Meibomian Gland Dysfunction can be painful and have a huge impact on a patient’s daily life,” says Dr Matthew Olsen, Head of UK Marketing, Théa Pharmaceuticals. “For many years Théa has been working closely with eyecare professionals on raising awareness of the importance of looking after our eyes, and we are pleased to add TheaLipid® to complement our existing portfolio of products that treat and protect the eyes. The product's composition is designed to support patientsand alleviate a range of eye conditions and symptoms, which aids us in our efforts in addressing the long-term needs of eye care professionals and patients.”

A daily eye care routine is recommended by eye care experts to keep the eyes and eye lids healthy, particularly for those patients with common eye conditions like Dry eye and Blepharitis. TheaLipid® can form part of your patient’s total eye care regime, complimenting current advice of warming and cleansing the eyelids and providing an additional hydrating option:

  1. Warm and massage – using the Blepha EyeBag® to warm and melt the oily secretions of the Meibomian glands, followed by massage which helps to release the oil.
  1. Cleanse – using BlephaClean to help remove the crusts, debris, and secretions.
  1. Restore – using TheaLipid® to restore and stabilise the tear film for long-lasting symptom relief.
  1. Hydrate and lubricate – using ThealozDuo to help hydrate and protect the ocular surface.
