New Breakthrough Dry Eye Drops Arrive From The Mentholatum Company

Rohto Dry-Aid is designed to relieve the five key symptoms of dry eye: dryness, irritation, grittiness, burning and stinging. In a clinical study² it delivered consistent and continuous relief over time and was rated highly for its refreshing feeling while delivering significant improvements in quality of life measures. Unlike other over-the-counter dry eye drops that only work on one layer of the tear film, Rohto Dry-Aid is formulated with Liquidshield™ technology and works in a unique way to restore moisture to the tear film by working on all three layers to mimic a stable, natural tear – soothing eyes for up to 12 hours.

"With the issue of dry eye on the rise, we've been working with our eye care researchers in Japan for the past five years to come up with a unique product/formula that quickly soothes dry eye symptoms and provides long lasting relief," said Meryl Reis, Vice President, Research and Development at The Mentholatum Company, "and now we feel very good to bring to consumers the next generation eye drop for Dry Eye," said Reis.

"Designed with consumers in mind, we are certain that the advanced Rohto Dry-Aid formula will help dry eye sufferers enjoy their daily lives, delivering all day relief from irritating and distracting dry eye symptoms, in a refreshing non-blurring eye drop," said Erick Estrada, Senior Director of Marketing at Mentholatum.

"The symptoms of dry eye can keep sufferers from enjoying daily activities, affect their appearance, and impact their performance at work, at school, and during sports," says Mile Brujic, OD, Premier Vision Group, Bowling Green, Ohio. "Rohto Dry-Aid is fast-acting and offers consistent and continuous dry eye relief, comfort, and protection against further irritation throughout the day."

Rohto Dry-Aid features a clear bottle with a unique, mess-free single-drop applicator and is currently available at major national and regional retail locations where over-the-counter dry eye drops are sold and also online.

In addition to Rohto Dry-Aid, the Rohto brand offers a cutting-edge line of products that provide fast, cooling relief for a variety of symptoms including Rohto Cool Max for maximum redness relief, Rohto Cool for redness and dry eye relief, and Rohto Ice All-In-One for multi-symptom relief.
