For Eye Redness/Itching "Went to the drug store earlier today to buy eye drops. Pollen is so bad in NJ, and my eyes were itching, red, and I had blurry vision. I bought this because it was the most expensive brand, and I figured it would work better. Nope! My eyes are on FIRE! And they itch so bad for 20 mins after using this product. $12.99 down the drain."

For Eye Redness/Itching "After applying the eye drops, I experienced burning and itching in my eyes that lasts for about five minutes and then subsides. I don't know if this is something that should keep me from using it or not. I use it in the morning about 30 minutes before putting in my contacts, only when I need it though."

For Eye Redness/Itching "This is horrible. My allergies have been bad lately. I went to the pharmacy to get eye drops. I normally get Similasan, which works great. They didn’t have that, so I decided to give this a try. I was torn between this and another cosine product, but unfortunately decided on this one. Oh my goodness, the burning was terrible. I even gave it a few tries. I thought maybe my eyes needed to get used to it. Day 3 and no improvement. Burning just as bad as the first time. Ordered Similasan on day 1 from Amazon, but still won’t be here for a few more days. I’m going to another pharmacy later just to see if they have it because I can’t use this another day."

For Eye Redness/Itching "I used Visine -A for my itchy allergy symptoms. I put one drop in each eye and experienced burning, intense pain in both eyes. It hurt so bad that I could not open my eyes for 5 or 6 seconds. I never used eye drops that caused me to have a reaction. I will never use this product again."

For Eye Redness/Itching "I have mild allergies to our family cat. I had my boyfriend pick me up some eye drops to help with the itchy, red, and burning eyes. I had never used Totality before but have used other Visine products and loved them. This one burned and felt like my eyes were on fire for about 5 to 10 minutes. After a few hours, my eyes do feel better, but it shouldn't be at the cost of setting my eyes on fire!"

For Eye Redness/Itching "I bought these for dry eyes, and I also have many eye floaters. This product has helped me so much and makes my floaters almost go away after I use it for a while. My vision does get blurry a few minutes after use, but then goes away! Great product, I will buy again, and the burning isn't that bad."

For Eye Redness/Itching "It says: 'Visine: Multi-Symptom Relief - 8 Symptoms.' I barely use eye drops. My vision is perfect. Lucky me! I had heat rash and was using calamine lotion. I shook the bottle with the top unscrewed. Pink everywhere! Some landed in my right eye. I went to the sink and ran it under water for 15 minutes. Ah! Days later, it was still aching and blood red. Once I looked in the mirror. I went to the drugstore and bought 'eye drops.' I did use 3-4 drops in the eye very often. After 3 days, it was just bloodshot. After a week, it didn't hurt so badly. I stopped using the drops without finishing the bottle! It worked to calm my eye after calamine lotion attacked me. Ouch! It was a relief, felt good to moisten my peeper (eye)."

"Back again. I stopped using the drops. 1-2 times a day. 3-4 drops in each eye. Was that 2 weeks, or just one? Swelling gone. Vision perfect. Dark undersides. Changed from red/inflamed to 'regular.' I sleep 6 hours and I'm tired. My eyes are never pink/regular near the nose tear duct. Before, it was the entire underside from duct to duct. Pain is gone. Maybe I'm a tough guy. My pain threshold is so high, it takes a real emergency for me to seek treatment. I cut a chunk and part of a vein in my hand. It needed stitches. I taped it tight and continued to split wood with an axe. Beautiful scar! These drops are wonderful. They worked perfectly for my issue. (Poked in the eyes) I'm an Osprey! Eagle vision and apex predator! Not using drops often. I think my point of view is valid. Doesn't hurt at all. 'Lava,' no, water. Generics that contain the same ingredients, they feel the same. I'll have some drops now. Two directly into the nose tear ducts. Mmm, it's benign. It feels good! I'm confused."

For Eye Redness/Itching "Two thumbs down. At first, it was going well, and then the burning started. Like I got hit in the eye with pocket sand or something. Tossing this bottle and going to try a different brand. I'd give it a zero, but it wouldn't let me."

For Eye Redness/Itching "I bought these drops this morning, thinking it would help. Instead, it made my eyes worse. My eyes burn so bad I could not open my eyes for five minutes. Even then, the light hurt my eyes and my eyes were blurry. It has now been 10 hours, and my eyes still hurt."

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 "I thought I should mention. I spilled calamine in my eye years ago. I found this old bottle. Expires Sept. 2024. It's old... Zinc sulfate 0.25 w/v, tetrahydrozoline hydrochloride 0.05% w/v. It bothers my eye for a second. Maybe it's a different formulation. It's the right ingredients. Why do so many say it burns? Not for me. And this bottle must be from at least 2022, considering the expiration date."

For Eye Redness/Itching "My first time using the eye drops was for redness. It burned, but after a few minutes, it subsided. But then it felt like there was something underneath the inside of my eyelid, and it was scratching my eyeball terribly. It was bothering me so badly I had to go lie down. That went on for 2-3 days. I didn’t realize at the time it was caused by the Visine. The second time, it did me so bad as I am experiencing this at the present time. It badly burned my eyeball. I used the drops thinking that I had a hair stuck under my eyelid. I kept feeling scraping on my eyeball. Then it turned really red, swollen, and a white, cloudy film kept forming over my eyeball. Every time I removed it, more would come. I woke up the next day, and my eye was stuck shut from drainage. My eye is so huge from swelling. Learning now that this stuff chemically burned my eyeball. Going to see a doctor today. How is this still on the market? Someone's eyes could be severely damaged from using this product."

"I was poked in the eyes. I still have perfect vision. Somehow, I didn't see what was right in front of me. Trees. I go off into the middle of nowhere. Thankfully, they didn't turn into black eyes! They are bruised on the underside. I look very tired. They ache a bit. Again, no damage thankfully. It's not like a sinus headache. My eyes, in the tear duct, feel inflamed and swollen. I wasn't sure if generics would help. My eyes are wet. I bought the brand name partly because I am lazy. My tear ducts are a little swollen, but it's the underside of my eyes that hurt and look bad. It works for me. Three drops feel like water. My salty tears burn more than this. Ten out of ten reduces the red in and around my eyes. It makes my eyes feel good? I might use it once or twice a day. Soon I won't be using it at all. Good luck to you."

For Eye Redness/Itching "I'm back one more time to say, I think it's good. My eyes have been dry. I'm not sure why. So I used this old stuff. It still works great. Close to the expiration date! It doesn't burn at all? Maybe a little, like saline (salt). That's gone in a second, and then my eyes have no problems, re-rebound dry. I like it, it works. So here's one more good rating because it's great for me. The only thing would be the price. I'm sure generic would work as nice."

"You will think I am crazy. I open my eyes in the ocean to see, while I am swimming. I wonder why everyone is freaking out. The drops work fine. I have no complaints. I do not do that in the pool, likely not fresh water. That burns with chlorine or is more likely to have bacteria. Mine are old and still work well. There is no pain at all. Four years old and moisten like a charm. Maybe generics are just as good, but I barely use them, I have no clue. Open eyes in the ocean! Yep, I'm fine, my vision is perfect. Sorry about your eye problems. Maybe it's not the drops but another conundrum."

For Eye Redness/Itching "So I got this Visine Totality because I have dry eyes, and I also lately have been having very bad puffy eyelids lately, and someone told me that I might have allergies that are affecting my eyes and should try allergy eye drops. So I got new eye drops, and I chose the multi-action allergy eye relief, and wow, they worked. Only been trying them for three days, and my big puffy eyes are pretty much gone. There is a burning sensation, but it only lasts a minute, and then it's gone. And it doesn't burn in the morning when I first wake up. Only when I put them in at the end of the day. I'm assuming it's because the allergens or debris are in my eye, which causes the drops to burn (to work). But they don't burn so much in the morning, only at the end of the day. So I'm pretty happy with the results of this product."

For Eye Redness/Itching "Okay, let me start by saying I’m seriously contemplating a lawsuit on this product. I made a quick decision to stop last Thursday for my dry eyes, and I chose this... first horrible mistake. I only did one eye since it burnt so bad... my eyes still haven’t stopped watering, and it has been over a week. I had a red chemical burn around the eye I used the drops in up until yesterday. I will be making a stop to the ER tomorrow and then probably the lawyer's office... DO NOT BUY THIS PRODUCT!"

For Eye Redness/Itching "I woke up with a swollen and itchy eye. No redness, and it's not pink eye. I asked hubby to go by Visine 7 symptom, and oh nelly, did I make the biggest mistake of my life! When he put it in my eyes, it BURNED! I really mean BURNED my eye inside and out! Within a few seconds came the serious itching! When I tell you itching, I mean I wanted to tear my eye out! I scratched with napkins and the tip of my index finger for about 10 minutes! I couldn't help it! I HAD to scratch! I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PRODUCT! I wish I would have read these comments before I put this stuff in my eyes! DON'T BUY THIS!"

For Eye Redness/Itching "I bought the new Visine Total Comfort all-in-one drops hoping for better relief for my dry eyes. To my dismay and extreme pain, the drops burned my eyes like fire upon contact. It’s been 4 days since, and I’ve been using just regular TheraTears I used before to help with even further dryness and pain, which it helps. Even my eyelids had an adverse reaction to the new Visine and are painfully red, tender, and itchy. I’ve even considered going to the eye doctor, it hurt so bad, but I have no vision insurance. I tried the new Visine based upon their name brand, past products, and experience in their field, but I wouldn’t recommend this product to anyone to try."

For Eye Redness/Itching "I bought this new Visine product on Dec 17, 2021, and upon first use, it burned my eye badly. I didn’t put it in my other eye and immediately washed my eye out, the pain was intense. I went online to Visine (Johnson & Johnson) and wrote them to complain (I’ve never done so before in my life) and see if they would look into it. I did get a response back asking questions and if I had gone to an eye doctor, however, I have no insurance that covers vision, and I’m a retired widow and need to use money wisely (Medicare does not cover vision). They said they deemed it not serious then and would close out my complaint. I was surprised by that by a company of their size and so many people like me having used their products over the years as being a trusted name brand. I guess company and money wins every time over the consumer and a complaint. It’s been 2 months now, and my eye is still painful, it burns as well as inside my eyelid and on top and it’s itchy. I’ve made an appointment with my PCP."

"This is the worst product ever. I have entropion, so my eye gets red and watery. This was supposed to ease that condition, but burns horribly. I threw it away. Don't buy it!!!"
