Shows differences in rheology of artificial tears, suggesting molecular weight affects clinical effectiveness.
Artificial tear formulation impacts its rheology, leading to differences in clinical effectiveness, even from a single application. Higher molecular weight hyaluronic acid in Hylo-Forte demonstrated more non-Newtonian behaviour, which is more aligned with the rheology of the natural tear film.
