REF113774) Review: Ophthalmologist-recommended and it genuinely delivers — still using it a month post-LASIK - My ophthalmologist recommended these drops as part of my pre and post-LASIK routine, so I didn't go into this purchase blind (no pun intended). But even with professional backing, you never really know how something will feel until you actually use it. These have been consistently good. The relief is fast — you feel it almost immediately after applying, that cooling, soothing sensation that dry or irritated eyes after LASIK really need. There's no stinging, no blurriness right after, just actual comfort. I'm now about a month out from surgery and still reaching for these regularly. Dry eye is one of the most common side effects of LASIK and it doesn't disappear overnight, so having something that actually works makes a real difference in day-to-day comfort. One thing I really appreciate about this particular format is the single-dose vials. They're so much more practical than a regular bottle — easy to throw in your bag, use on the go, and you're not worried about contamination since each one is sterile and sealed until you open it. You also end up wasting less product overall, which makes the value per drop better than it might look at first glance compared to the standard bottle. Once you factor that in, the price makes a lot more sense. I've tried other lubricating drops before and they either felt too watery and wore off quickly, or left a filmy residue. These hit a good middle ground — substantial enough to last but not heavy or uncomfortable. If your doctor has recommended lubricating drops post-surgery, or you deal with chronic dry eye, these are worth keeping in your routine. I'll keep buying them.

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. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ophthalmologist-recommended and it genuinely delivers — still using it a month post-LASIK *by L***A on 26 June 2026* My ophthalmologist recommended these drops as part of my pre and post-LASIK routine, so I didn't go into this purchase blind (no pun intended).

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. ## Frequently Bought Together - Refresh Optive MEGA-3 Lubricant Eye Drops Preservative-Free Artificial Tears, 0.01 fl oz (0.4 mL), 30 Single-Use Containers - Refresh Celluvisc Lubricant Eye Gel Drops, Single-Use Containers, 30 Count (Pack of 1) - Systane Nighttime Lubricant Eye Ointment 3.5g Tube --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sk/products/253309574-refresh-optive-mega-3-preservative-free](https://www.desertcart.sk/products/253309574-refresh-optive-mega-3-preservative-free) --- *Product available on Desertcart Slovakia* *Store origin: SK* *Last updated: 2026-07-10*
