The MacuTrition nutritional supplement combines antioxidants, anti-inflammatories and anti-angiogenics (including vitamins D and E, omega 3 and green tea extract) and aims to promote long-term eye health.

The NutriDox Convenience Kit, a treatment for meibomitis and meibomian gland dysfunction (MGD), comprises doxycycline 75 mg, a nutritional supplement addressing dry eye symptoms and a topical heat compress.

MacuTrition is available over-the-counter, and NutriDox is a prescription-only product. In addition to these AVR products, Sirion sales reps will also provide samples of TheraTears, AVR's range of products for the treatment of dry eye.
