We have a special interest in dry eye disease at MVO and have helped hundreds of our patients who suffer from this common condition. Dry eyes are especially prevalent in our arid climate of southern Alberta.


Over 80% of dry eye disease is due to inflammation within the oil glands of the eyelids. Omega 3 vitamin supplements play a critical role in reversing this inflammation, improving the quality of the oils produced and helping to generate a healthier tear film. However, not all Omega 3’s are created equal. Taking the wrong one not only reduces its benefit to your eyes and overall health, it also may cause undesirable side effects.


It's important to us that our patients are using products that are unmatched in quality and purity. PRN® Omega-3 is the only formula clinically proven to reduce both the signs and symptoms of dry eyes. Over a 12-week period, patients taking PRN® Omega-3 had a substantial improvement in 4 test markers for dry eye disease compared to a control group taking a placebo.


The proven benefits of PRN® are so compelling, there is a 90-day money-back guarantee! Use this product for 3 months and it will improve your dry eye symptoms – guaranteed!
