For Dry Eye Disease "Crazy. My eye doctor pushed these eye drops so hard, and using these eye drops made my eyes dryer and dryer. It took 2.5 years to discover that I should use preservative-free eye drops instead—because lo and behold, I was allergic to the regular drops! The regular drops caused more inflammation, which interfered with my normal tear production. Thousands of dollars later, a lot of pain and suffering, two ulcers on my left eye, and it was the office receptionist that suggested I try preservative-free eye drops! And, within a couple of weeks, my devastating dry eye symptoms were gone."

For Dry Eye Disease "Almost from the beginning, my eyes felt better for a few days, but on the third day, I noticed my eyes stayed swollen, red, began to have headaches, crust around my eyes, and now I can’t see as well, so I have to have stronger eyeglasses. Also, I noticed the outer rim around my iris continues to thicken. These drops are horrible, and I do not recommend them to anyone, and they should be taken off the market."

"Bought this because the eye Dr. recommended it, and since I started using it, my eye is worse than ever... watering nonstop, puffy, redness, and blurry vision. Today is so bad I can't even see clearly to drive! I work in the medical field, and I will be telling everyone I can!!!"
