Comment:
I'm using this drug for ocular rosacea. I have used this product for a year and it does not work at all. I am unable to get only 1 drop per eye in and the bottle does lasts less than a week. This product is very painful once it reaches my eye. I really wanted for this product to work because my eyes are frequently so red and sore.
