By the end of the day, my eyes are very dry, and when I wake up in the morning, I can't even open them for a few minutes. It feels like my eye lids are stuck to my eyeballs.

    These drops worked wonders for me! I was using Polymyxin B Sulfate-Trimethoprim Ophthalmic for a week with no results. With the Vigamox, I noticed a difference right away.

    Completing 5th day. No positive effect at all. Inflamation, light sensitivity and pain remain the same as the day I went to doctor. Will explore options and alternatives with doctor today.

    Works well to fight the bacteria, also fights your wallet. The 3ml bottle sells for over $86...multiply that by 3 people in the house with pink eye and you have $265 in very expensive eye drops.
