ADVANCED VISION RESEARCH INTRODUCES STERILID
EYELID CLEANSER
Advanced Vision
Research, makers of TheraTears Brand Lubricant Eye Drops, has launched
its newest product, SteriLid Eyelid Cleanser. SteriLid is the first
antibacterial lid foam designed for lid hygiene, and will be a critical
advance in treating blepharitis and dry eye, keeping bacteria counts low
on punctal plugs, and, when used by patients in the days leading up to
eye surgery, reducing the risk of endophthalmitis. Research shows that
patients struggle with homemade mixtures and dilutions, and cotton swabs
and pads, leading to poor compliance. Furthermore, existing eyelid
soaps, pads and scrubs are not antibacterial. The company developed
SteriLid to take lid hygiene to the next level.
SteriLid Eyelid Cleanser is comfortable and easy to use, yet has been
shown to kill both the gram positive and gram negative bacteria most
commonly responsible for endophthalmitis, a complication of ocular
surgery when bacteria gain entry to the eye.
To use SteriLid, patients press a dispenser on the top of the bottle and
the product comes out as premixed, pre-diluted foam. We see SteriLid as
an important addition to the pre-surgical armamentarium particularly
when it comes to cataract and LASIK surgery said Jeffrey P. Gilbard, MD,
Founder, CEO and Chief Scientific Officer of Advanced Vision Research.
All types of eye surgery will be just that much safer. In addition now
doctors will have a gentle over-the-counter antibacterial product to
kill the bacterial overgrowth associated with both anterior and
posterior blepharitis.
