Systane Gel Drops 10ml – Day & Night Lubricating Eye Gel

Systane Gel Drops provide intensive, long-lasting lubrication for the relief of severe or persistent dry eye symptoms. The unique gel formula is thicker than standard eye drops, forming a sustained protective coating over the ocular surface that provides relief throughout the day and is particularly effective for overnight use when the eyes are closed for extended periods.

Systane Gel Drops contain hydroxypropyl guar (HP-Guar) which cross-links with components on the eye surface to form a stable, cushioning gel layer. Suitable for use during the day and at night. Available from Pakuranga Pharmacy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference between Systane Gel Drops and regular Systane eye drops?

A: Systane Gel Drops have a thicker, more viscous formula than standard Systane drops. This means they stay on the eye surface longer, providing more sustained relief — particularly beneficial for people with moderate to severe dry eye, or those who need overnight protection. Standard drops are lighter and more suitable for mild dry eye or daytime use without blurring.

Q: Will Systane Gel Drops cause blurred vision?

A: Due to their thicker consistency, Systane Gel Drops may cause temporary blurred vision immediately after instillation. This usually clears within a minute or two with blinking. For this reason, they are often preferred for use at bedtime. If using during the day, allow a minute or two after application before driving or operating machinery.

Q: Can I use Systane Gel Drops with contact lenses?

A: Systane Gel Drops are not recommended for use while wearing contact lenses. Remove lenses before applying the drops and wait at least 15 minutes before reinserting them. Consult your optometrist if you need dry eye relief while wearing contacts.

Q: How often can I use Systane Gel Drops?

A: Systane Gel Drops can be used as needed, though most people find 1–2 drops in each eye at bedtime provides overnight comfort. During the day, use as required for symptom relief. If you need to use them more than 4 times daily, consult your eye care professional or pharmacist.
