"Toxic product. I was prescribed these eye drops. They cause calcific eyelid discharge, increased sensitivity to light, stinging, and pain, and they seem to offer NO improvement."

"After using Systane my eyes have been hyper-sensitive to light, itchy, angry, and red. They are also crusted shut when I wake in the morning. Systane is one product to never ever buy."

"The product itself works fine but the new dispenser that came out in December 2022 with the flatter top is awful. It dispenses way too much liquid and ends up all over your face."

"My doctor prescribed systane for dry eye disease. Made my eyes burn badly, eye pain and sticky watering eyes. He then prescribed Restasis and it has worked wonders. Highly recommend Restasis."
