Hyaluronic acid is soluble in water and is one the fundamental components of the connective tissues in the human organism and in other mammals, necessary for structural functions; it also has an effect on the resistance and maintenance of skin’s structure.
It is able to absorb great quantities of water therefore retains the water content of the tissues that renders the tissue plastic and permeable.
The reduction of hyaluronic acid therefore causes skin weakness that promotes the formation of wrinkles and other inaesthetic skin conditions.
Hyaluronic acid is practically everywhere in the organism: in all the connective tissues, including the vitreous humor of the eye, the umbilical cord, synovial fluid of bone joints.
Artificial tears containing hyaluronic acid take advantage of its ability to absorb great quantities of water content; in fact in contact with the tear drops, the activity of hyaluronic acid renders the liquid, from a mechanical point of view, similar to the natural tear film that covers the eye surface: viscosity is reduced when attrition is high, for example during involuntary rhythmic opening and closing of the eyelids, therefore avoiding any damage to the surface of the eyeball, while viscosity is higher when the eyes are open and have a greater need to maintain humidity, therefore avoiding tear film rupture.

| Description |
BLU gel® is an ophthalmic solution with hyaluronic acid 0.30%
BLU gel® is a tear substitute for use in particularly severe dry-eye syndrome, as an aid for strumental diagnosis and in refractory surgery, and in those cases in which a mucomimetic component is able to satisfy the real needs of the patient and the ophthalmologist.
BLU gel® will remain on the cornea for more than 150 minutes during the waking hours (clinical evaluation was done by corneal topograph) without modification to sight or symptoms of blurred vision.
The hyaluronc acid in BLU gel® is uniform per molecular weight, length and regularity of the chains. |

| Product Use |
BLU gel® is able to protect the cornea, is transparente, viscoelastic, sterile and without preservative agents.
BLU gel® protects, moistens and lubricates the eye surface, procuring longterm comfort against aggression from:
- mechanical stress: for example, wearing hard or soft contact lenses, during ophthalmic diagnostic and surgical procedures
- environmental stress: for example, air conditioning, wind, cold, dry air, pollution, sigarette smoking
- vision stress: caused by prolonged activity in front of the computer monitor, using a microscope, driving
