Updated May 2024

When we received our latest shipment, we found that the packaging had changed, and the inactive ingredient list has also changed since our last update, so I'm re-doing my description.

This is a spray that is meant for eye lubrication but is applied to the eyes by spraying it on CLOSED eyelids. It's marketed as particularly helpful for screen use. I've tried it while sitting at my computer and it was good for a little bit of moisture plus sharpening up vision temporarily, without having to cover my eyes with a drop and wait for it to dissipate. 

The best use cases that I can think of for this product are people with dry eye for whom one or more of the following apply:

  • struggle to get drops in their eyes
  • don't like the feel of eyedrops in their eyes
  • just need a moisture boost, rather than dousing their entire eye

This is NOT labeled for contact lens use. I think that contact lens wearers and scleral lens wearers who find it interesting should show the product drug facts (i.e. with ingredients) to their lens provider before attempting to use it.

Might work for some people really well!

I wanted to like this. I thought you sprayed it into your eyes and that seemed like it might feel great, but you're supposed to spray it on your closed eyes, on your eyelids. The product itself feels nice but I decided spraying something on my eyelids just wan't right for me, didn't do a lot for me. I will keep trying it since I have it, I wish it could be sprayed into your eyes, the sprayer is a little strong.

Great night time spray

I spray this one on just before I put my night mask on. My eyes feel better first thing in the morning, less pain and grittiness.

Not for me

My eyes are extremely sensitive to drops - I was hoping this would work, since you don't actually put it in your eye, but spray it on lids. Like many other products I've tried, this did nothing to alleviate the dry eye, and actually made the burning/stinging worse.

I've given two stars because I really hate to downgrade a product - it might work beautifully for some....

Helpful but strong

I would use this once a week. It is potent and builds up on the lashes. That’s just us, my husband has exposure from a palsy, so we must be careful.
