"Impressed with data and effectiveness, but even with a $59 coupon for a 2 ml bottle, this medicine is too difficult to use. The oil base made the drop impossible to sense when hitting the eye. It required a mirror to know the drop had hit the eye. Additionally, the drop came out of the dropper bottle by gravity. Don’t squeeze the bottle. The oil base and bottle design mean many drops will be wasted. Now normally, 1 ml = 20 drops. So, twice daily, 2 ml will amount to no more than a 21-day supply. With wasted drops, it lasted 2 weeks, nowhere close to the 50 days prescribed by the MD. Summary: probably a good product but way too expensive for average use, even when insurance covers it."

"Excellent drops. These drops help me with my eye dry disease, and my insurance does not cover this medication. And the pharmacy asked me for $600.00. I called my insurance and nothing. The first bottle was an example. Now my eyes are bothering me again."

"Very difficult to get drops out of the bottle. Droplet size was not consistent. Used product two months. Second month bought a $20 dropper cap to attempt to regulate droplet size. Did not make much difference. Bottle did not last 20 days. Too expensive even with coupon. Wish product was in daily squeezable ampules for individual daily use. I did like the product. No burning or irritation when put into my dry eyes."

"Small bottle that's difficult to use with arthritic hands. Much is wasted, not knowing if it went in the eyes. Way overpriced for the tiny amount in the bottle. Delivery is extremely slow after the Rx is written by the physician. That said, it seems to help."

"Too early to tell how effective, but applying is problematic. I can’t tell if a drop comes out or not. I have a feeling I’m using too much and will not have enough for the month. Single-use vials, like Xidra, would be so much better."

"Product worked well, but not able to feel when the drop hits the eye, leading to waste. Very poor dropper design and not nearly enough product to last through the month."

"Headaches, headaches, headaches. I'm done with this overpriced eye drops. Have had a headache for 2 months. I stopped the drops and headache gone."

"Having dry eye has made me a pro at instilling eye drops. I've never had issues with getting a drop in my eye without a miss or streaming down my face. However, I find the dropper on this medication to be frustrating. One out of four drops actually makes it into my eye. Given how much this product costs, you would think they could design a better dropper for it. This was my first and last bottle I will be purchasing, as it is too cost prohibitive to put on my face. I won't get to use the product long enough to find out if it works for me because most of it is wasted."
