For Eye Redness "Used Lumify for less than a week, and within a few days began to have floaters. Black dots float into my field of vision in my right eye. Went to the eye doctor, and he said it was aging in my eye. But I can’t help but wonder if it was a coincidence or if Lumify caused this annoying (now apparently permanent) effect. Anyone else have this happen to them? And to add insult to injury, the drops did not clear up the redness in my eyes."

For Eye Redness "I’ve been using these drops for a few months now, and although they do whiten my eyes, I now can’t see out of one of my eyes. My retina is so badly swollen, and my vision is gone in that eye, I don’t know if I’ll get it back. I’m now on steroid drops to try to get the swelling down and see if my vision comes back. Don’t use this product, it’s not worth losing your vision!"

For Eye Redness "Lumify did make my eyes whiter. They felt smoother. But by that night, my vision was so blurry, and my eyes felt like I had floaters I couldn’t get rid of. Really hope this passes. Double vision is not worth whiter eyes. So weird and scary to have such an extreme change in my vision. I’d think twice about using this product for pure vanity’s sake. I put Systane in my eyes to see if I could clear up the floaters and blurry vision. Barely a change."

For Eye Redness "It worked in an instant. Amazing! But then a couple of hours later, my eyes were itching, and I was dizzy, and bright light bothered me at the computer. This lasted a couple of hours. My eyes were a little swollen and then stayed itchy for two days. So if you want to be like Cinderella and have gorgeous white eyeballs for about 2 hours, be prepared to leave the ball in a hurry when time is up and then pay the price. I hope I never need the full strength used by glaucoma patients!"

For Eye Redness "After using Lumify, I noticed a dramatic increase in floaters, my vision wasn’t as clear, and I had a headache. I am certain the symptoms occurred as a direct result of using these eye drops. Unacceptable."

For Eye Redness "I listed Lumify on drugs used when I went to the eye specialist. She asked who told me to use Lumify, and I said I read about them and went immediately and bought them. She said she couldn't believe these had made it to market because one of the ingredients is used for glaucoma. Told me to stop taking immediately!"

For Eye Redness "I tried Lumify about a year ago, and upon using, I started having floaters, which I had never had before. Had to go to the eye doctor because I had no idea what was happening. The only thing I was doing different was the Lumify, I told her. She said she didn't think that would cause floaters, and it is something common that happens as we age. The doctor gave me some steroid eye drops, and eventually, the floaters went away. I also quit using the Lumify after the appointment. I recently thought I would give Lumify one more try. Maybe the eye doctor was right that it was just a coincidence that I got floaters when I started using Lumify. Shortly after trying again, after about a year, I experienced worse floaters than what I had a year ago and really blurry, washed-out vision. It has to be the Lumify because it only happened once I started using it. I hope this will go away like it did the first time upon discontinuing use."

For Eye Redness "Each time I have used these drops (one drop per eye in the morning), the side effects were different and more extreme. Initially, after several hours of application, my right eye felt very dry and scratchy. Today, the vision in my left eye became impaired (peripheral left quadrant - was seeing swirling movement), and I had a migraine headache both behind and around my right eye. I will no longer be using these drops."

For Eye Redness "I thought Lumify was going to clear my eyes, only to find out after using this product I now have floaters. The eye doctor stated this is age-related, but I didn't have any experience with floaters prior to using Lumify. I can't help but wonder, did Lumify bring on the floater experience, which is very annoying. Now I need help/support to get rid of the floaters without surgery."

For Eye Redness "After using these drops, my vision blurred so badly I couldn't see to read a clock, read, or drive. I also had a lot of floaters and flashes appear in my eyes. I recommend NOT USING THESE DROPS."
