Comment:
I found this drop to be very ineffective for treatment of my dry eyes. Eyes became very irritated and burned after use. Drops gave no relief for problem. Dr. had recommended.

Comment:
I have extreme dry eyes and often irritated from allergens. When using these drops (preservative-free vials), my eyes immediately burned, turned blood-red, and became swollen. I eventually had to do an eye wash to get as much of the product out of my eye as possible. It still took several days for my eyes to return to normal. Terrible reaction....

I had a reaction to the drops,burning eyes, blurred vision,pink or red eyes,swollen lids,pain in eyes. I wish I had never used this product because it has been a couple of days since I used it (for one day only) and my eyes still have not recovered.

Comment:
Recommended by doctor for dry eyes. Caused skin reaction. Swollen lids, red eye lids and peeling skin where drops ran out of eyes. Was nit sure if drops or something else so stopped until eyes recovered then started again. After a few hours I could see same thing starting to happen again. So they do not suit me.
