Sodium hyaluronate, a physiologic substance which is found in the eye but also in other tissues of the body. Sodiumhyaluronate has the special property to form an even, stable, especially long lasting layer of humidity on the surface of the eye without being rinsedaway very quickly. Ectoine is a natural substance gained from microorganisms that live in an exteme environment (e. g. salt lakes). To be protected against these extremeenvironmental conditions these microorganisms form the natural substance ectoine. Its specific properties are used in Hysoft EC. Ectoine increases the binding of water at the cells of the ocular surface. This forms a physiologic barrier on the conjunctiva against allergenic actingsubstances. Simultaneously ectoine stabilizes the lipid layer of the tear film that protects against excessive evaporation of tears. The interaction of sodium hyaluronate and ectoine provides intensive long lasting lubrication of the ocular surface and protects against evaporation oftears.
