Get to know MIEBO
MIEBO is a different type of eye drop for dry eye. It’s the first and only prescription (Rx) eye drop that directly targets too much tear evaporation.
MIEBO is used to treat the signs and symptoms of dry eye disease.
Although you may not have heard about tear evaporation, it’s the #1 cause of those pesky dry eye symptoms. Until MIEBO, there hasn’t been a prescription eye drop that specifically targets it.
How MIEBO works
When you place a drop of MIEBO in your eye, it spreads evenly and quickly to form a protective layer. This reduces evaporation so you can keep more of your own tears.
How MIEBO may help
In clinical studies, MIEBO was shown to significantly* reduce:
- Signs of dry eye. With continued use of MIEBO, doctors saw improvements in the damage on the surface of the eye.
- Symptoms of dry eye. People in the studies felt their eye dryness significantly improved.
Relief in as little as 2 weeks
In the studies, doctors checked the signs and symptoms of dry eye after 2 weeks, and again after 8 weeks. Patients saw significant improvement at both checkpoints while they were continuing to use MIEBO.
*MIEBO was studied against saline in 2 clinical trials of more than 1200 patients who were treated 4 times per day.
The most common side effect seen with MIEBO was blurred vision, which occurred in 2.1% of people. It usually resolved within minutes. 0.8% of people also experienced eye redness.
The MIEBO experience
Comfortable to use
In clinical studies, most people rated MIEBO as comfortable or very comfortable to use.**
Don’t feel it? Don’t worry.
It's 1 ingredient with unique properties, so you might not feel it, or it might not make you blink.
**In studies, 81% of people treated with MIEBO rated it as a 7 or higher on a 0-10 comfort scale.
Remove contact lenses before using MIEBO. Wait at least 30 minutes before putting them back in.
Is MIEBO right for me?
If you’ve tried over-the-counter treatments, prescriptions, or procedures and are still looking for relief, maybe it's time to try something different. Consider asking your eye doctor about MIEBO.
Other eye drops may add tears or increase the number of tears you make. But for about 9 out of 10 people with dry eye, the cause, in part, is too much tear evaporation. This means that other drops alone may not be enough.
MIEBO is the only prescription eye drop that directly targets too much tear evaporation.
