How should HYCOSAN® FRESH be applied? Please read the information leaflet provided with the eye drops.
Priming the system:
To prime the system remove the over cap (see Picture 1) and invert the HYCOSAN® DUAL bottle with its tip pointing down.
Place two fingers on the base and your thumb on the shoulder of the bottle (see Picture 2) and press firmly on the base and release. Repeat this several times until the first drop is released. The bottle is now primed.
General use:
Remove the over-cap and invert the HYCOSAN® DUAL bottle with its tip pointing down. Support the hand holding the bottle with the other hand (see Picture 3).
Hold the bottle as previously shown (see Picture 4). With your head leaning back slightly, pull down your lower eyelid. Press the base of the bottle. This enables the bottle to release one drop into the conjunctival sac. Release and repeat for the other eye. After each application slowly close your eye to allow the fluid to spread evenly over the eye surface.
The design of the COMOD® valve system ensures that the size and speed of each drop are the same regardless of the pressure applied to the base of the bottle.
During use please avoid any contact between the tip of the bottle and your eye or your skin.
Before replacing the over-cap please ensure that the tip is dry (see Picture 5).

1 ml HYCOSAN® FRESH contains 0.3 mg sodium hyaluronate, Euphrasia-original mother tincture, boric acid, borax and water for injections.

When should HYCOSAN® FRESH be used?
HYCOSAN® FRESH is used as a lubricating eye drop for irritated or mild dry eye. Irritated and dry eyes can result from environmental factors such as intensive or prolonged computer-based activity, dry climate, draught, air pollution caused by dust or pollen or wearing contact lenses. HYCOSAN® FRESH contains the sodium salt of hyaluronic acid, a natural substance found in many organs of the human body including the eye. Its special property is that it forms a regular, stable, long lasting, lubricating and moisturising film on the eye surface that is not easily rinsed off. These bioadhesive properties ensure that the cornea and conjunctiva are protected, and together with the physiological tears, the eye lid slides over the surface of the eye. For hundreds of years, preparations of Euphrasia officinalis have been traditionally used for the treatment of conjunctival irritation with red and burning eyes, increased secretion of tears as well as swelling and redness of the eyelids or eyelid margins.
HYCOSAN® FRESH is used for relieving irritated or dry eyes even when wearing hard or soft contact lenses.
Being preservative-free, HYCOSAN® FRESH is very well tolerated. Additionally, HYCOSAN® FRESH is phosphate-free, so that possible complications due to the formation of insoluble deposits in the cornea are avoided.
