NOW ACCEPTING APPOINTMENTS FOR SERUM TEARS!

Ophthalmologists and optometrists have prescribed autologous serum tears (ASTs) for over 30 years to treat dry eye disorders as many conditions that cause dysfunction on the surface of the eye can benefit from serum tears. Studies have shown serum tears to be effective for:

• Neurotrophic keratopathy
• Persistent epithelial defects
• Exposure keratopathy
• Patients on chronic glaucoma drops.
• Pre/post-surgical (cataract surgery, LASIK, etc.)
• Dry eye syndrome

HEALTHY AND SUPERIOR CHOICE FOR DRY EYE TREATMENT AND BEYOND

ARCpoint Labs of St. Charles offers a natural treatment option for patients experiencing dry eye symptoms from ocular surface diseases, including those caused by other medical conditions and medication side effects. Our serum tears are produced by using the PALA™ Kit, a patented technology that enables our clinicians to process the blood serum in a terminally sterile closed system. There have been no reports of adverse events from using serum tears, and most patients report that serum tears are well tolerated and very soothing.

DRY EYE TREATMENT THAT IS:

• Long Lasting - Each 40mL serum (5mL bottle) used 4 times a day dosing typically lasting 4 months, and each 60mL serum (5mL bottle) used 4 times a day dosing typically lasts around 6 months.
• Affordable - FSA/HSA plans can be used to pay for Serum Tears, as insurance will not cover Serum Tears. ARCpoint Labs of St. Charles will provide a detailed receipt for patients to submit to their insurance company for possible reimbursement.
• Quick and Easy - Once patients have consulted with their doctor if Serum Tears is right for them, the doctor's office can submit the Serum Tears request directly to ARCpoint Labs of St. Charles and we can have the prescription completed and to the patient within 2 hours of the patients' arrival. No more mailing in serum to an out of state laboratory and waiting days for your prescription.
