BION Tears is no longer available via PBS subsidy (Pharmaceutical Benefits Scheme) in Australia.
To help make the transition easier for those patients and practitioners currently using or prescribing Bion Tears, practitioners could recommend the PBS-listed lubricant Systane UD Lubricant Eye Drops. This has the benefit of being available in a similar delivery format, preservative-free unit dose vials, and addresses the mucoaqueous layer of the tear film with HP Guar technology.
