Review: Gentle eye drops that are easy to keep on hand - I use these eye drops during the day, especially when my eyes feel dry. The single use vials make them easy to grab and use without any hassle, and I like not having to worry about contamination. When I put them in, they feel gentle and smooth. They do not sting or feel irritating, which makes them comfortable to use even when my eyes already feel a bit sensitive. I notice they feel more moisturizing than some basic drops I have tried, and they seem to absorb pretty quickly without leaving a heavy or overly blurry feeling for too long. That balance makes them easy to use during the day when I still need to stay active and focused. I usually keep a few vials in my bag and some at my desk so they are easy to use whenever needed. It is convenient not having to think about it too much since each one is already pre-measured. One thing I notice is that each vial is single use, so if I do not use the whole thing at once, the rest gets tossed. That is just part of the format, but it is something I keep in mind when using them. Overall, they are easy to use and fit into my routine without much effort. They are simple, comfortable drops that I reach for when my eyes feel dry.
Review: My Autoimmune Dry Eye Lifesaver - Having an autoimmune disease gives me terrible dry eyes, but these preservative-free artificial tears are a lifesaver. My eye doctor originally recommended them to me after giving me a sample, and I liked them so much I bought a large count. They are incredibly soothing and provide instant relief. I love that they come in single-use containers. They are well packaged, making it so easy to always have them on me in my bag or pocket. Just recently, a younger friend’s daughter got sand in her eye, and I used one of these vials to safely flush it out! If I could change anything, I wish they weren’t so expensive. However, for the relief and portability, they are absolutely worth the money but I use sparingly because of the cost and save them for my worst days.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: It lists ingredients carboxymethylcellulose sodium, glycerine, polysorbate 80.  why is flax oil not listed?**
A: Flaxseed oil is considered an inactive ingredient in the US so is listed elsewhere on the carton.  In the US, some eyedrop ingredients are considered as "active" based on FDA Monograph rules.  Many useful and protective ingredients are included in eyedrops, but those not classified as "active" will be listed separately on the carton.

**Q: are they preservative free**
A: Yes they are preservative free, but that’s not necessarily a good thing. The manufacturer says you should only open a vial, use 1-2 drops per eye and then DISCARD the vial and all remaining lubricant. The reason is that because there is no preservative, any bacteria that gets into the opened vial will multiply like crazy and within a short period of time could become enough bacteria to create an eye infection after repeated use of a vial. These drops are far better than most others on the OTC market, but they are very expensive, especially if you need to use more than one vial a day for blepharitis, etc. At $24 a box (retail price) you are purchasing just 1/5 of an ounce (!) of lubricant in 30 delivery vials — that would be a bit more than a teaspoonful of lubricant total.

**Q: Do these eyedrops have flaxseed oil?**
A: Yes, but as the fifth Inactive Ingredients. Active Ingredients, eye lubricants, are carboxymethylcellulous sodium, glycerin and polysorbate. BF has severely dry eyes and so far Retaine MGD has proven to be her go to drops. Nano Tears work but are only single use.

**Q: can they be used during the day, to drive, will they blur vision?**
A: They do blur my vision for a few (2-3 ) minutes. I usually relax with my head tilted back to really get the benefit from the drop because the drop relieves the burning immediately to  my irritated dry eye.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent Relief for Persistent Dry Eye
*by S***S on 4 December 2025*

I’ve tried many different artificial tears over the years, but Refresh Optive MEGA-3 stands out as one of the most effective. The lipid-enhanced formula really does make a difference—my eyes feel comfortable much longer compared to regular watery drops. The consistency is smooth without being greasy, and the “low-blur” claim is true; vision clears quickly after applying. I also appreciate that these drops are preservative-free and come in convenient single-use vials. They’re especially helpful on days when my eyes feel extra dry from screen use or when I’m dealing with wind or air-conditioning irritation. The moisture lasts, and the soothing effect feels almost immediate. They are a bit pricier than standard artificial tears, but the effectiveness and comfort make them worth it for me. If you struggle with moderate to severe dry eye or want something that supports the tear film’s natural oils, these are absolutely worth trying.
