Effect of Artificial Tear Solutions and Saline on Tear Film Evaporation
Optometry and Vision Science, 1990ABSTRACT The effect on tear evaporation of two artificial tear solutions is compared with that of an equal volume of saline instilled into the eye. Changes in tear evaporation rates (TER) were measured with a modified Servomed Evaporimeter in a cross‐over study of nine subjects.

Effect of preservatives in artificial tear solutions on tear film evaporation *
Ophthalmic and Physiological Optics, 1991It has been suggested that certain preservatives in artificial tears may affect the stability of the tear film lipid layer. In the present study, tear film evaporation rate (TER) was measured with a modified Servomed Evoporimeter to determine whether preservatives affected tear stability. Two solution combinations were compared in a cross‐over study of

Stability of Cyclosporine 1% in Artificial Tears
Journal of Ocular Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 1996We wished to determine the stability of frozen, refrigerated, and room temperature topical cyclosporine 1% in artificial tears (Tears Plus). Cyclosporine 1% eye drops were made in artificial tears prior to the manufacturers recommendations of using a lipid soluble vehicle, such as olive oil.

Effect of Artificial Tears on Visual Acuity
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 2005To study the effect of commonly used preservative free artificial tear, carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) 0.5% (Refresh Plus, Allergan, Irvine, California) on visual acuity in symptomatic dry eye (SDE) and asymptomatic dry eye (ADE) patients.Nonrandomized prospective clinical trial.Prospective study involving 20 patients (40 eyes) with SDE and 20 patients ...

Colloid Osmotic Pressure of Artificial Tears
Journal of Ocular Pharmacology and Therapeutics, 1985While the total osmolality of the aqueous tears and tear substitutes has received much attention in the past few years, the colloidal osmolality or the oncotic pressure (which includes the Donnan effect), has received practically no attention except for one single foreign publication.

A Unique Therapeutic Artificial Tear Formulation
1994The tear film has a unique electrolyte balance distinct from aqueous humor and serum.1. We postulated that this electrolyte balance was critical for the maintenance of ocular surface health.

Ocular physiology and artificial tears.
Journal of the American Optometric Association, 1999In this study, we evaluated the pH value of nine artificial tears solutions in order to investigate whether their pH changed over time. These solutions are designed to have a pH value within the ocular comfort range and to come close to the physiological tears' pH.Fifteen bottles of each solution were randomly chosen from different production lots ...

Developing the Optimal Artificial Tear
1997Development of what has been called “the optimal artificial tear solution” was based on a two-pronged strategy. This strategy was first, to develop a profound understanding of the pathogenesis of dry-eye disease, and second, to develop a comprehensive understanding of why the eye needs a tear film.
