Lacrifill

The gel treatment is customized for each patient to ensure the canalicular system is fully filled. Treatment, is administered through an in-office procedure and remains effective for 6 months, according to the release.

The commercial launch of Lacrifill follows the findings of a proof-of-concept pilot study of the gel, which involved 63 patients with DED. The study found that 83% of participants experienced no pain, 94% of participants had on infections, and 63% reported that their eye felt better after treatment. Additionally, a randomized non-inferiority clinical trial found that 7.8% of participant eyes demonstrated an increase in corneal staining, with 5.8% of participants reporting some degree of discomfort during the procedure. This study randomly assigned participants 2:1 to treatment of either Lacrifill or Oasis form fit.2

Lacrifill canalicular gel is a disruptive technology that will change how eye doctors practice.

Alright, let's simplify this:

Guess what? There's a new superhero gel for your eyes called Lacrifill Canalicular Gel! It's like a special potion that helps people with dry eye disease feel better. This gel is made by Nordic Pharma, and it's super cool because it's been approved by the FDA, which means it's safe to use.

This gel works by temporarily blocking the tears from draining out of your eyes. It's like putting a little stop sign in the canalicular system, which is a fancy way of saying the tiny channels where tears usually go. By blocking these channels, the gel helps keep your eyes wet and comfortable for a long time.

And here's the really neat part: this gel is made just for you! It's like getting a custom-made superhero cape that fits perfectly. Your eye doctor will give you the gel in their office, and it stays effective for six whole months!

Before they launched this gel, they did a study with 63 people who had dry eye disease. Guess what they found? Most of them said they felt no pain, and almost all of them didn't get any infections after using the gel. Plus, more than half of them said their eyes felt better afterward!

So, this gel is like a game-changer for eye doctors. It's going to help lots of people with dry eyes feel much better. How cool is that?
