ARTIFICIAL TEARS BY HA NOI CPC1 PHARMACEUTICAL: 4 GENERATIONS – WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE?

1st Generation – Simple saline drops Provide short-term moisture only Quickly evaporate and require frequent use

2nd Generation – Synthetic polymers (PEG, HPMC, CMC, etc.) Increase viscosity and remain longer on the ocular surface Better lubrication than saline, but still limited in healing support

3rd Generation – Natural polymers, especially Hyaluronic Acid (HA) Excellent water-binding capacity with long-lasting hydration Forms a protective cushion over the cornea Supports ocular surface recovery in dry eye or superficial keratitis

4th Generation – Lipid/Emulsion eye drops Designed for severe evaporative dry eye Help restore the lipid layer to reduce tear evaporation

The higher the generation, the more comprehensive the hydration and protection. HA stands out not only for moisturizing, but also for supporting ocular surface stability and comfort.

Phiphos – A 4th-Generation Innovation

Phiphos is developed as a 4th-generation artificial tear with a composition designed to closely mimic natural tears, delivering comfort and optimized performance.

A comprehensive solution:

Hypotonic solution: Helps balance osmotic pressure, particularly important in dry eye conditions associated with elevated tear osmolarity.

Nano-emulsion technology: Forms a protective layer on the ocular surface, helping soothe the eyes and minimize post-application blurring.

Cationic emulsion technology: Acts across all three layers of the tear film, including the negatively charged mucin layer, supporting improved tear film stability.

BFS (Blow-Fill-Seal) technology: Manufactured as sterile, preservative-free single-dose units to enhance safety and reduce preservative-related risks.

Phiphos supports not only symptom relief, but also long-term ocular surface protection.
