Delicate eyes endure the onslaught of a world of microbes that move unabated and virtually weightless throughout all environments.
Key Points:
- Delicate eyes endure the onslaught of a world of microbes that move unabated and virtually weightless throughout all environments.
- Physical contact with the eye from simple touching and rubbing, to placing contacts represent only a fraction of the ways pathogens infest sensitive organs.
- The dichotomy of a preservative-free eye solution in an environment contaminated with incomprehensible numbers of harmful pathogens is problematic and limiting.
- In a world where, "first, do no harm" is sacrosanct, the preponderance of eye solutions contain caustic preservatives that damage epithelial cells.
