Aqueous tear substitutes combined with oil / lipids
Aqueous tear substitutes combined with an oil additive can be beneficial. This is because in the course of dry eye disease, regardless of the primary cause, a combined watery-oily tear deficiency disorder usually develops - hence the lack of water and oil.
If there is a lack of oil, replacing the missing oil with substances with similar properties often leads to an immediate and noticeable improvement of the symptoms . Then a sole oil replacement , eg by a liposomal spray, or combined aqueous tear substitutes with oil, as shown here , can be useful.
