OcufreshEveryday Eye Drops - Dry, Tired & Itchy Eye Treatment - Sodium Hyaluronate 0.2% - 10ml Pack - for Daily Eye Care Routine

These Italian-made eye drops are distributed by a company based in the UK. Preservative-free, they are suitable for use with all types of contact lenses - the reason for my interest. I wear daily disposable contact lenses but occasionally my eyes feel a little dry. Drops like these instantly make my eyes feel more comfortable.There was a recall of eye drops in America fairly recently as some instances of sight issues had arisen so although I was keen to have my eyes feel less dry, I was put off buying hydrating drops like these. If this is you, a list of the recalled eye drops can be found on the internet. These definitely do not appear on the list.I'm happy to use these Ocufresh Everyday Lubricating Eye Drops. And at last my eyes are feeling more comfortable. The pack I received has a long expiry date of 02 2026 and, once opened, the drops have a 6 month window of use - which is longer than some brands I've used in the past.

Worse eye drops I have ever know. The drops themselves may be fine...couldnt get in eyes to know!The design is ridiculous. Get the lid off is a huge near impossible task, not seen such a complicated lid before. (see item photos)Once you get the lid off the top of bottle if flat with hole in middle! how is that easy to aim drops into eyes? Drops do not drip out a drop at a time so correct dose is used. You have to quirt bottle as hard as possible then a lot pours out in any direction. Why do the not use a regular nozzle shape bottle so can aim direct into eye? don;t understand how anyone thought this was a good design idea.Be warned!

It’s got a time of up to six months from opening on it. Now that’s a good long date compared to a couple I bought last year.Being out in garden and on our small holding in this glorious weather has its drawbacks… that’s right sore achey eyes.So after a hard time gardening it’s back into house and eye drops in.Relief felt at once and tiny bits of dirt dried mud actually this time from cleaning out chicken house soon gone from eyes.One for the bathroom cabinet for me. Putting it in eyes easy and such quick relief. Better than an eye wash as this dropper bottle means it just dispenses into your eyes not all down your face like some eye baths.Great if you suffer with itchy sore tired eyes and not badly costed. Long date after opening even better.

The media could not be loaded. Considering it has a 6 month open expiry date, I think it should have been much much more quantity maybe 120ml, feels like what's the point of use within 6 months, only to have 10ml drops only? It won't last a week. Doesn't make sense to me.Anyways it came out very slow, the anticipation of putting it in the eye was rather annoying, as the time it took to get a drop out was a little too long for my taste. You can store it between 5oC and 35oC So fridge it if you want it to be cool on the eyes.The way I drop it in, for my left eye, first wash hands warm/hot water with soap and dry 100%, I used hot water make sure I killed all the germs on my hands for this job. Then I use my right finger to hold the left bottom eyelid down, while I look up at the tip, my left hand squeezes it in directly looking at the tip, but not touching the tip, I mastered that way, but I started off doing it in the mirror. Then repeat by mirroring the arms (left finger, for right eyelid).You don't get much room for error, if you miss a few drops because it's only 10ml. For the price nearly 8 quid is rather poor value sorry, but it did work, but so did others that were cheaper and more quantity. It also says you can use it on any contact lens, so that means whilst wearing any type of contacts.

What I like about this product:* Compared to the myriad of products I keep for my dry, tired 'all day staring at a computer screen without blinking' eyes, this one has a good shelf life... up to 6 months after opening. Some only last 30 days.* The effect is not instant relief, for me at least. But when it kicks in, the relief is wonderful. Almost like night and day - dry, itchy eyes become less strained, more comfortable, and relaxed.* No unpleasant taste! Yes, I said taste! Many eyedrops I've used over the years find their way through your tear ducts into your nose/ throat and are unpleasant. These have had no such effectWhat I didn't like:* The bottle is quite small for the price, lasted me ~3 weeks* The dropper mechanism is unusual - and I found it quite difficult to administerOverall, a great product that I would very much recommend... would love to see a bigger bottle especially as it has such a good post-opening shelf life... and an improved dropper!

Wary of purchasing eye drops from anywhere except Boots the Chemist, I did ask a couple of people (experts) to tell me if they thought that these eye drops are OK and good to use. I had not heard of this brand before. I was told they'd be OK. I do suffer from dry eyes and this is not seasonal so I probably use a couple of drops (one in each eye) to refresh my eyes six out of every seven days. The price is good and comparable to the competition and in the first few days of use I have had no issues and my eyes have not been sore. There was no initial stinging when I use them and they lasted me throughout the daytime when the soreness can be at it's worst. I don't use contact lenses so I cannot comment about their use with contact lenses and I only use one drop per eye so I know these will last me a long time. These look as though they will become my eye drops of choice. No itching!
