Hyclo 0.05% Eye Drop 5 mL

Hyclo 0.05% Eye Drop 5 mL is a prescription eye medicine that contains ciclosporin 0.05% in each milliliter of solution. It belongs to the immunomodulator class and is used to help treat chronic dry eye disease by reducing inflammation on the eye surface and helping the eyes make more natural tears. Hyclo 0.05% Eye Drop 5 mL is placed directly into the eyes, so it acts locally where the symptoms happen. It is not a quick lubricating drop, but a treatment that may help improve ongoing dryness, burning, and irritation over time.

How it works: Ciclosporin helps calm inflammation on the surface of the eye, which can be part of chronic dry eye disease. By reducing that inflammation in eye-drop form, Hyclo 0.05% Eye Drop 5 mL may help the eyes produce more natural tears and feel less dry and irritated.

The 0.05% strength is a standard low-dose ophthalmic ciclosporin formulation designed for people whose dry eye needs anti-inflammatory treatment rather than simple lubrication. Compared with stronger systemic medicines, Hyclo 0.05% Eye Drop 5 mL works locally in the eye and is chosen because it can be used long term with less whole-body exposure. A doctor may select this strength when symptoms are persistent and the eyes need a medicine that targets inflammation.
