Visine Pure Tears Lubricant Eye Drops

I also use Pure Tears and like the fact that they are preservative free. Using the bottle was a little awkward at first but I found that holding it upside down like a knife with opening downward and pressing on the bottom with my thumb to eject the drops works best. I also have a difficult time finding them in stores, and only buy them on Amazon now. I have called Visine and asked them to advertise this product so more stores would carry it. Another thing that I find helpful is wearing an eye mask at night to help keep my eyes closed, the type that block out light. I have very dry eyes and tend to sleep with my eyes slightly open because of eyelid surgery. The mask helps keep my eyes closed so they aren't so dry the next day and I need fewer drops. I fold the mask in half so it presses a little better in the eye lid area.

I've had the same problem as John Z. It's hard to aim this dispenser into your eye without missing. Part of the problem is that the force required to push the bottom of the dispenser (which is how the drop is dispensed) results in moving the direction of the spray, & I'm hesitant to place the tip any closer to my eyes because I don't want to chance an accidental poke in the eye. I would estimate that one out of every three drops ends up in my eye, the other two drops miss my eye & end up somewhere else on my face. And my hands are not weak & I do not have tremors, so that's not the problem. The problem is the dispenser itself, which needs to be redesigned to allow an easier, smoother, less forceful pushing motion. The eye drops themselves are great, & help me more than any other product I've tried, & I have very dry eyes. They lubricate just to the right degree, & are not too thick to cause blurred vision or discomfort, as some other eye drops do. Overall, I recommend this product, eve... Read more

STAY AWAY! This 1 drop dispenser is an awful design. You feel like you are going to pop your eye out. The + reviews on here must be fake. I would give it a zero if I could. The solution is no better then the cheap Visine.

Pure Tears is the only thing I can use for my severely dry eyes. Even the more viscous drops such as Thera Tears gel contain ingredients that irritate my eyes. Somehow, Pure Tears doesn't bother me at all. I keep a bottle in my purse, in the car and by the bed. The cap is easy to pull off quickly at a stop sign when I'm driving. I never get too much or too little dropping from the Pure Tears bottle so I don't have the occasional liquid running down my cheek like I do with other drops. My three complaints are that they don't make a smaller size, too, to fit in a pocket, it's quite expensive, and it's nearly impossible to find in the stores. For anyone else with severely dry eyes, I've had success with Unisol saline (very difficult to find and expensive,too) and Clear Care contact cleaner. I also use a humidifier at night and vaseline in my eyes(just as good as the expensive opthalmic ointment if you change out a small container frequently and are scrupulously sanit... Read more

As a result of being put on atenolol I have reduced blood pressure and pulse rate, and greatly reduced eyeball pressure, but a side effect is reduced tear production. Since I already had low tear production, this has been a big problem. Most of the eye drops with preservatives irritate my eyes, and this drop in the single use vials is inconvenient. This product and this dispenser soothe my eyes and are very easy to apply.
