For Dry Eye Disease "My eyes occasionally become dry. I have used many brands of eye drops over the years. I recently purchased Refresh Tears Lubricant Eye Drops (because of a good price). As soon as I put a drop in each eye, my eyes immediately became very red and painfully sore. I have never had such an effect with other brands of eye drops, including Equate."

For Dry Eye Disease "I've been using Blink for a number of years but now need to switch to a preservative-free eye drop. Systane was recommended, so I tried it, and my eyes became very irritated and watery as I added drops and the day wore on. Blink 'reset' my eyes. I am allergic to the active ingredients in Systane, so I began looking for a PF eye drop that had different active ingredients and found Refresh Tears. This was a much better fit for my eyes, and they feel much better. Just because your eyes react badly (allergy) to a particular brand doesn't mean they're bad eye drops, as stated by other reviewers; it just means they're not right for your eyes. The same is true with any medication. What is effective for one person may not be effective for another, even for the same condition."

For Dry Eye Disease "I used to use Allergan Refresh Tears eye drops, but it has become extremely expensive. Then I discovered AbbVie Refresh Tears, which is much cheaper! Refresh Tears is the only eye drops that help my dry, sensitive eyes. My blind daughter also only uses it for the same reason. Both of us can't use the Refresh Gel because you can't see clearly and it clogs up. However, the Refresh Tears is so refreshing, cool, and relieves dry, tired, and scratchy eyes immediately! I can almost hear my eyes saying: 'Aaaah these drops are so refreshingly fantastic, it's like a dream come true!' My bottle is nearly empty, and I need to order another one soon. Is it at all possible that you can advise me if I can order from you - or where else. Thank you for your kind assistance."
