Our study is one of the first studies to investigate the relationship between the semifluorinated alkane (SFA), F6H8 eye drops, and HOA.

This allows EvoTears to replace the function of the lipid layer, forming an outer shield over the surface of the tear film, reducing evaporation of the watery layer.

Evotears is specially designed for all grades of MGD and dry eyes associated with tearing and irritated eyes. In conclusion, the results of our study show that administration of single drop F6H8 induces HOA when applied continuously for four weeks.

The study and consent procedure were approved by the ethics committee of the University of Duesseldorf, Germany (no. Patients' and physicians' assessment indicated good efficacy and high tolerability of EvoTears, suggesting its suitability in postoperative management of the ocular surface in patients with dry eye disease. The purpose of this prospective, controlled clinical study was to evaluate the effect of a non-aqueous liquid, perfluorohexyloctane (F6H8; Evotears®), on HOA after four weeks of application in otherwise healthy subjects. This prospective, monocentric, open-label clinical trial included 40 patients undergoing cataract surgery and showing symptoms of evaporative dry eye disease as measured by the Symptom Assessment in Dry Eye (Visual Analogue Scale [VAS]) questionnaire, Ocular Surface Disease Index (OSDI), and tear break-up time (TBUT) of less than 10 seconds.In addition, different devices for measuring HOA can only be compared with each other to a limited extent. EvoTears is a water-free, preservative-free eye drop that acts to stabilise the tear film lipid layer, relieving symptoms associated with Evaporative Dry Eye and Meibomian Gland Dysfunction (MGD). Andreas Frings was supported by a grant from the Ernst and Berta Grimmke Foundation (Hamburg, Germany). Study participants were advised to discontinue use of the study medication 12 h prior to measurements. EvoTears ® OMEGA eye drops are the world’s first eye drops with the innovative substance perfluorohexyloctane and also the first water-free drops for the treatment of dry eyes.

We instructed patients to keep their forehead and chin in contact with the rests, to avoid head tilt, to keep their focus relaxed—looking through the fixation target rather than at it—and to blink whenever they wanted, but to keep their eyes wide open in between blinks.This prospective interventional randomized study included healthy individuals without a history of dry eye disease.

The mean pre- and post-interventional values for the aberrometric indices and the 95% LoR for the first 100 eyes are tabulated (Table ​ (Table2). The EvoTears ® OMEGA eye drops, being water-free, do not have a pH and therefore do not need to be buffered. While several factors such as pupil diameter can influence HOA measurements [ 19], the volume of eye drops instilled also plays an important role in the HOA development and visual performance [ 20].

Thanks to the prolonged ocular retention time, the protection of the eye against evaporation is long-lasting.

A recently published systematic review confirms the strong association between dry eyes and increased HOA [ 7].
