Lacrifill® Canalicular Gel is a new and innovative CE-marked and FDA-cleared medical device for lacrimal occlusion. It is a transparent and sterile gel made of cross-linked hyaluronic acid, intended to block tear drainage by occlusion of the canalicular system. Lacrifill® is indicated for use, for up to 6 months, in patients experiencing dry eye symptoms, and comes in a prefilled syringe that is sufficient for administration in both eyes of one patient.
