The ocular surface of your eyes is one of the most important aspects of clear vision. It relies on natural tears to provide lubrication and nourishment. When this delicate system is compromised, it can lead to frustrating and often debilitating conditions like chronic dry eyes. Fortunately, advancements in medical science have led to new ways to treat these problems, including autologous eye drops.


What Are Autologous Eye Drops?

Autologous eye drops are a groundbreaking treatment made from the patient's own blood. The term "autologous" means "from the self," which is what makes these drops so unique. By using your own blood, the resulting eye drops contain a concentrated amount of your body's natural healing components, such as growth factors and essential proteins, which mimic the properties of healthy tears. This natural, biocompatible formulation helps to soothe inflammation and promote the healing of the ocular surface.


How Do Autologous Eye Drops Work?

The process begins with a simple blood draw, similar to a routine lab test. The blood is then processed in a sterile environment to separate the plasma, which is the part of the blood rich in healing factors. This plasma is then formulated into eye drops, which are typically preservative-free. Because the drops are derived directly from your body, there is a minimal risk of allergic or inflammatory reactions.


Are Autologous Eye Drops Safe and Effective?

Yes, they are considered safe and effective for many patients. Since the eye drops are a tailor-made formulation from your own body, they can provide powerful and targeted relief. Consistent use as directed by your doctor can help to treat existing symptoms, promote the regeneration of epithelial cells, and improve the overall health of your ocular surface.
