Bepanthene Eye Drops Plus is a medical device in the form of 10ml eye drops with phospholipids, vitamin A, vitamin E, hyaluronic acid and dexpanthenol. According to the manufacturer, it is intended for the symptomatic treatment of very dry and chronic dry, irritated eyes. It soothes, hydrates and relieves, offering intensive long-lasting care without preservatives.
It is aimed at those who are looking for eye drops for very dry eyes or who are dealing with chronic dry eye that does not respond to simple artificial tears, as well as those looking for eye drops with phospholipids and vitamins A and E. It is the enhanced version of the range, for persistent or severe symptoms.
The reason this formula stands out is that it targets not only the aqueous component of the tear, but also the lipid component. The tear film is stable as long as there is a sufficient lipid layer on its surface, which limits evaporation. When this layer is incomplete, the tear evaporates quickly and dryness returns shortly after each instillation. These drops form a uniform, stable and long-lasting protective film, which also offers long-lasting hydration.
The manufacturer describes the action of each ingredient separately. Hyaluronic acid binds water and is found in the eyes, joints and skin. Thanks to its thick consistency, it remains in the eye for a long time and can thus stabilize the tear film. Dexpanthenol, also known as provitamin B5, supports the moisturizing effect of hyaluronic acid and also has a high water-binding capacity, so the drops rejuvenate the very dry or irritated eye. Phospholipids, derived from natural soy oil, support the regeneration of the normal lipid layer of the tear film. Vitamin A and vitamin E have antioxidant properties, act against free radicals, offer protection against negative environmental effects such as UV radiation and have a protective effect on the cells of the eye surface.
According to the manufacturer, the product relieves symptoms such as itching, redness, burning sensation, foreign body sensation and tearing. It does not contain preservatives or phosphate buffer solution and is therefore, as it states, very well tolerated.

Steps as given by the manufacturer: keep your head back and look up. Use a finger to pull down the lower eyelid of the affected eye. With the other hand, hold the open container vertically and as close to the eye as possible. Drop one drop in each eye. Then close your eyes slowly so that the liquid is evenly distributed over the surface of the eye.
After each use, wait a few seconds without pressing the vial, so that it regains its shape via the sterilized air filter system, which allows air to enter at a slower rate. If you are using other eye drops or ointments, wait about 15 minutes between applications and always administer Bepanthene Eye Drops Plus last. In very rare cases, irritation may occur in very sensitive eyes or transient blurred vision may appear. If the discomfort does not improve, stop use and consult your ophthalmologist.
The classic is based on hyaluronic acid and dexpanthenol and mainly aims at hydration and lubrication of the surface. The Plus keeps these two and adds, according to the manufacturer, phospholipids from natural soy oil for the regeneration of the lipid layer of the tear film, as well as vitamins A and E for antioxidant protection. That is why the Plus is intended for very dry and chronic dry, irritated eyes, while the classic is for daily hydration.
