Abstract
The article defines the milestones of the development of the main types of artificial tears, describes characteristics and benefits of the new tear substitute Cationorm® based on Novasorb® technology: electrostatic mucoadhesion, rapid and optimal spreading, and long time of contact with the ocular surface, favorable action on all tear film layers, osmoregulation, compatibility with different contact lens types, and prolonged clinical efficacy.
