For Eye Redness/Itching "I used Totality for itchy dry eyes (which were mild), and my eyes burned and itched throughout the evening. Fast forward a couple of weeks, used it again... eyes burned for about 15 minutes and continued to sting and itch. Never using it again."

For Eye Redness/Itching "I have used other Visine products, however, Visine Totality Multi-Symptom Relief one was absolutely terrible! I felt like I dropped acid straight into my eyes. I see this is common. Why is this still on the market?"

For Eye Redness/Itching "I had terribly itchy eyes after gardening all afternoon. Without thinking much of it, I used these Visine drops, and my eyes stung terribly for a moment or two. When the stinging ended, my eyes felt better than they had for days. The wonderful results were well worth a few moments of discomfort!"

For Eye Redness/Itching "My dog and cat sleep on my bed, and sometimes I awaken with itchy, watery eyes due to pet dander allergies. 1 drop of Visine A.C. in each eye makes them burn and sting so badly that it’s like using boiling water. I plan to try another brand."

For Eye Redness/Itching "The stinging is unbearable. Awful product. Visine went wrong on this. I'm surprised it's on the market."
