About the Product

Optimel Manuka+ Forte Eye Gel is a preservative-free, medical-grade Manuka honey eye gel designed to provide relief for moderate to severe dry eye, eyelid irritation, and meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD). This advanced formulation helps reduce inflammation, bacterial overgrowth, and tear film instability, supporting long-term eye health.

Why Choose Optimel Manuka+ Forte Eye Gel?

• Ideal for Nighttime Use – Provides soothing overnight relief for dry, irritated eyes.
• Supports Eyelid Hygiene – Helps reduce bacterial contamination that can contribute to dry eye symptoms.

Who Should Use This Product?

Optimel Manuka+ Forte Eye Gel is suitable for individuals with:

• Aqueous tear deficiency (reduced tear production).
• Eye discomfort and irritation caused by MGD, blepharitis, or chronic dry eye disease.
• Eyelid inflammation due to bacterial overgrowth and poor tear film quality.

How It Works

Patients with dry eye and meibomian gland dysfunction often experience an overgrowth of bacteria on the eyelid margin, which can disrupt the tear film and lead to eye surface damage. Optimel Manuka+ Forte Eye Gel helps by:

• Reducing bacterial colony-forming units (CFUs), lowering the risk of bacterial conjunctivitis and keratitis.
• Minimizing bacterial lipase production, which can degrade meibomian gland lipids and worsen tear film instability.
• Providing anti-inflammatory support, helping to calm irritation and redness.
• Encouraging healing and hydration, promoting long-term eye comfort.

How to Use

• Apply 3 times daily to the lower eyelid margin and conjunctival fornix.
• Expect mild stinging and redness upon application; this is normal and temporary.
• Use at night for enhanced hydration and relief while you sleep.
• Wait at least 30 minutes before inserting contact lenses after use.

Precautions

• For single-patient use only.
• Use under the supervision of an eye care professional for best results.
• Do not use if allergic to bee products or food gums.
• Replace cap after use and check tamper seal before first use.
• Discard 2 months after opening to maintain product safety and efficacy.
