Dômes Pharma and Fear Free® Collaboration Enhances Stress-Free Eye Care for Pets
In a pivotal advancement in veterinary medicine, Dômes Pharma has recently joined forces with Fear Free®, a well-respected initiative committed to reducing fear and stress in pets during medical treatments. This partnership, marked by the inclusion of Dômes Pharma in the Fear Free Preferred Product Program, is a testament to both organizations' shared vision of transforming the way pets experience veterinary care.
Dômes Pharma, a leader in veterinary ophthalmology, has long been recognized for its innovative products designed to support the health and wellbeing of pets. With this new collaboration, the company aims to enhance the emotional experience of animals during eye care, an area often fraught with anxiety for both pets and their owners.
At the heart of this partnership is a line of products celebrated for their effectiveness and commitment to minimizing discomfort. Notably, Dômes Pharma's flagship products include:
1. Oculenis®: A preservative-free ocular barrier gel that provides crucial support for pets suffering from corneal ulcers. Utilizing BioHAnce™ technology, this gel allows for prolonged contact time on the eye, promoting healing while reducing the frequency of application.
2. Ocunovis® Procare: These daily-use, preservative-free eye drops are specifically formulated for pets with dry eye or ocular surface disease. Thanks to the advanced BioHAnce™ technology, these drops guarantee long-lasting hydration and relief, empowering pets to live comfortably.
3. Fluodrop™: This sterile, single-use fluorescein ophthalmic solution is crucial for diagnostic applications, as it helps detect corneal defects and assess the tear film breakup time. Packaged conveniently, Fluodrop™ minimizes stress during examinations, making it a favorable choice for both veterinarians and pet owners.
Anne Moulin, President of Dômes Pharma, emphasized the importance of combining clinical outcomes with emotional wellbeing. "True innovation in veterinary medicine must consider not only clinical effectiveness but also the emotional experience of the animal," she stated. This collaboration not only showcases Dômes Pharma's commitment to veterinary excellence but also aligns with Fear Free's mission of compassionate and innovative animal care.
Fear Free® empowers veterinary professionals to prioritize the emotional and physical welfare of pets. By providing education, certification, and practical resources, the organization ensures that veterinary practices are equipped to deliver the highest quality of care in a compassionate environment. Dr. Jennifer Merlo, Vice President of Veterinary Affairs at Fear Free®, reaffirmed their alignment with Dômes Pharma, highlighting how the innovative ophthalmic solutions foster a more patient-friendly approach to veterinary care.
Dômes Pharma's roots trace back to 1947 in the Auvergne region of France, where its dedication to animal health sparked a legacy of developing effective solutions for pets. The company's international expansion reflects its commitment to quality veterinary care, as it extends its presence across Europe and into the United States. Today, Dômes Pharma, and its Salt Lake City-based subsidiary, continues to leverage proprietary technology to enhance the efficacy of ophthalmic treatments for animals.
Together, Dômes Pharma and Fear Free® are set to transform the landscape of veterinary care, ensuring that pets not only receive effective treatment but also endure significantly less stress throughout their care journey. This partnership is a beacon for future innovations in pet healthcare, emphasizing that emotional wellbeing is just as paramount as physical health.
