Serum Tears for Dry Eye

Now Available at Fraser Eye Care for Just $45
Fraser Eye Care Center is excited to offer autologous serum tears for patients struggling with moderate to severe dry eye. We know that dry eye disease can be complex and many patients suffer with frustrating dry eye symptoms. Now you can offer your dry eye patients an effective, customized, and affordable solution. Many eye care practices outsource the production of serum tears, requiring patients to make separate visits to a pharmacy or other location for blood draws. We are proud to produce serum tears in-house, which allows us to control the quality, safety, and pricing, as well as simplify the process for patients.

Advantages of Serum Tears

Serum tears are made with a patient’s own purified and micro-filtered blood in order to mimic the body’s own natural healing and lubrication. Serum tears are preservative free and customized for each patient. According to the American Academy of Ophthalmology, a recent report of clinical studies shows that serum tears have been proven safe and effective for many patients, including those with severe dry eye disease and epithelial defects.
