When to Use
During contact lens wear
The drops form a protective moisturising layer between the lens and cornea, reducing friction and discomfort during prolonged wear. Can be applied directly over lenses.
For dry eye syndrome
Sodium hyaluronate and chondroitin sulphate retain moisture on the corneal surface and restore the disrupted tear film, providing long-lasting hydration.
For screen-related eye fatigue
Prolonged screen use reduces blink frequency and dries the eyes. Rohto Aqua moisturises, refreshes and relieves fatigue and tension.
For irritation from dust, wind and chlorinated water
The drops neutralise external irritants, flush away particles and restore comfort after exposure to environmental factors.
