Systane Ultra is a professional-grade lubricant that utilizes a sophisticated polymer network consisting of HP-Guar and borate. Upon application, the solution transitions into a gel-like matrix that mimics the natural mucin layer, creating a protective shield over the ocular surface. This delivery system is designed to provide extended residence time and relief for moderate-to-severe surface dryness.
The formula is pH-balanced and includes polyquad as a preservative. Data indicates that a temporary blurring of vision may occur for 30-60 seconds as the polymer matrix forms. It is optimized for end-of-day maintenance and addressing surface strain from digital environments.
