Nu-Eyes ™ Ingredients and Instructions
"N-acetylcarnosine (Nu-Eyes ™) Eye Drops: Approved by Innovative Vision Products"
Nu-Eyes ™ is a proprietary form of N-acetylcarnosine, a time release carrier form of L-carnosine for safe and effective delivery into the aqueous humour of the eye. Once delivered into the aqueous humor this natural anti-oxidant molecule becomes highly active in the reduction of free radicals, oxidative stress and lens glycosylation.

- Glycerin (lubricant) 1.0%
- Carboxymethylcellulose sodium (lubricant) 0.3%
- Sterile Water (Ophthalmic Grade Isotonic Solution, pH 6.3 to 6.5) buffered with Potassium Phosphate
- Dibasic and Potassium Phosphate Monobasic
- Purified Benzyl Alcohol (Preservative)
Eye Drop Installation Instructions:
- Wash your hands with soap and water.
- Look toward the ceiling with both eyes open.
- Pull lower lid down with one hand.
- Hold bottle in other hand and steady your hand against your forehead.
- Put one drop in the sac behind the lashes of the lower lid.
- Instill one (1) drop in the affected eye(s).
- DO NOT allow the tip to touch your eye or any other surfaces.
- Try to keep your eyes closed for one minute after instilling each drop to obtain maximum benefit.
- Wait a minimum of 5 minutes between applications to the same eye to prevent wasting of the product and to ensure maximum benefit.
- Apply two (2) drops into the affected eye(s) two (2) times daily (or as directed by a physician) for a total of 4 drops daily to each affected eye.
- Store drops in a cool, dry environment and do not expose to extreme temperatures.
If you have limited mobility in your neck you may try lying down or using a reclining chair prior to instilling the eye drops.
There are two additional ways to apply eye drops if you are experiencing difficulty with the more traditional method.
Option 1: Gently pull the corner of your lower eye lid down and tilt your head back. Apply 1 or 2 drops into the pocket formed by your lower eyelid. DO NOT allow the tip to touch your eye or any other surfaces. Repeat for your other eye if required.
Option 2: Close your eye, apply 1 or 2 drops to the inner corner of your eye. DO NOT allow the tip of the bottle to touch your eye or any other surfaces. Open your eye and blink several times to spread the drops properly.
In all cases it is very important to apply gentle pressure when squeezing the eye drop bottle or excess solution will be wasted.
Each box of Nu-Eyes ™ contains two 5ml vials and each 5ml vial contains approximately 75-drops. If treating both eyes, 1 box of Nu-Eyes ™ will last 2 weeks. A simple way to plan your use is to know that you will need 1 box per eye, per month.
Two (5ml) vials per box
1 month supply for both eyes = 2 boxes
2 month supply for both eyes = 4 boxes
4 month supply for both eyes = 8 boxes
6 month supply for both eyes = 12 boxes
Nu-Eyes ™ is manufactured in a GMP (Good Manufacturing Procedures) facility per FDA guidelines, however only the lubricants Carboxymethylcellulose sodium and glycerin are approved by the FDA for ophthalmic use and can be listed as active ingredients on our label. Nu-Eyes ™ is not FDA approved for the treatment of cataracts as the clinical trials have been conducted primarily in Russia over the last decade; therefore N-Acetylcarnosine 1% is listed as an inactive ingredient on the label.
