• Moderate to severe dry eye  
• Chronic or persistent symptoms  
• Patients requiring longer-lasting relief  
• Frequent screen users with ongoing dryness  
• Individuals needing preservative-free options  

• 0.4% sodium hyaluronate for increased viscosity and retention  
• Preservative-free for safe, frequent application  
• Prolonged hydration of the ocular surface  
• Supports tear film stability  
• Reduces need for frequent reapplication  

OptiChoice 4mg/ml is a high-strength dry eye treatment available in Australia, developed for patients experiencing moderate to severe or persistent ocular dryness. With a higher concentration of sodium hyaluronate (0.4%), this formulation provides increased viscosity, allowing the drops to remain on the ocular surface for longer and deliver sustained hydration. 

As a preservative-free eye drop, it is suitable for frequent use and for patients with sensitive eyes or those requiring long-term dry eye management. The formulation helps stabilise the tear film, reducing symptoms such as irritation, grittiness, and fluctuating vision commonly associated with chronic dry eye. 

This product is well suited for individuals who have not achieved sufficient relief from standard lubricating eye drops and require a more intensive approach. It can be used as part of a broader dry eye treatment plan, including eyelid hygiene and environmental management, to support overall ocular surface health. 

Sodium hyaluronate binds water and forms a viscous, protective layer over the eye’s surface. The higher concentration improves retention time, reducing tearevaporationandmaintaininghydration for longer.

Choose this product if you require preservative-free, high-strength lubrication for moderate to severe or persistent dry eye with longer-lasting relief.

You may prefer OptiChoice 2mg/ml if your symptoms are milder and you are looking for a lighter drop suitable for frequent daytime use.

Compared with Hylo Forte, this option is better suited for patients needing a higher viscosity formulation for extended retention, while Hylo Forte may be preferred when a slightly lighter drop with a specialised delivery system is desired.
