- Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2024Style: Refresh CelluviscVerified PurchaseWhen I saw the eye dr a few months ago, I was told to try a product of this type. I had zero experience with gel drops. I am was impressed with the easy transition to the different system for use. Each dose is in a plastic vial and somehow holding something smaller with gel in it allowed me way better aim. The drops are soothing right away. The first use was a delight. The more I use this product, the less dryness issues I have over all. This product has been a welcome relief and a game changer for me! My dry eye impacts affected my vision entirely too much! I have so much more functionality and hope for my sight now after years of sadly resigning myself to allegedly normal age related degeneration! I really appreciate the new lease on life I feel now! Thank You For Helping Me!
- Reviewed in the United States on April 17, 2022Style: Refresh CelluviscVerified PurchaseUPDATE: Refresh tells me the vials are #4 plastic, and that's something that most recycling programs accept. So...recycle them!
UPDATE: the only downside for me (other than all the unrecyclable plastic) is that the gel is so thick (which I like) that it forms "sleep" in the corners of my eyes and dry flaky deposits on my eyelids, I can see them, they create tiny spots in my vision, and I'm always pulling/rubbing my eyes/eyelids/lashes to get rid of them.
I've got dry eyes, have had several eye surgeries, often it feels like there's a grain of sand in my eye, allergies make them itch and burn and redden, a thinning cornea in the corner post-surgery so I also have to use a doxycycline ointment - I've got it all.
I've used bottled drops for centuries and they've never worked well for me -- they just get diluted and dry up too quickly. I've tried the gels, which are much longer lasting, but the problem with all of these I think is the preservatives -- too often the drops/gels make my eyes burn for a while after using them. This stuff does not -- it feels immediately soothing, no stinging, it's thick enough to last for hours. It does blur my vision for a few minutes.
My only concern is all the plastic -- I can get two doses out of each vial, so I have to use only one vial a day, but still 30 of those vials adds up to a lot of plastic. They're the only reason the drops can be preservative-free, but I think Refresh ought to have a program where you can return the empty vials to them. As far as I know, no recycling program takes them -- I can't find any identifying triangle with a number on them, and besides they're probably too small. Still, Refresh needs to recycle their plastic -- it could even save them money.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 21, 2024Style: Refresh CelluviscVerified PurchaseAfter having eye surgery in my left eye, it started to become very dry, dry to the point where it would give me a headache on the left side of my head. I tried many brands of eye gels and I’ve concluded that Refresh Celluvisc works the best for dry eyes. I also like that it is preservative free and one application lasts for hours. Good product and no more painful dry eyes = no more headaches!! So glad I found Celluvisc!!

**note: I found that almost all vials contain fluid that will deteriorate into a hardened gel (due to lack of preservatives) before I could finish using them. They are designed to be disposable after a single use, and you will be hard pressed to get multiple uses that maintain an ideal chemical reaction. As such, these economic ratings are not done by milliliters, but by price per whole vial. So the vials with more fluid in them are not necessarily a better deal. That said, some vials may be designed with an unsatisfactory amount of fluid per vial for even a single use. You decide.
GRAND TOTAL RECOMMENDATIONS
Allergan Refresh: Recommended for evening/nighttime use
Bausch & Lomb: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Blink Tears: Recommended with reservations
Similasan: Not Recommended
Systane Ultra: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
Tears Naturale: Not Recommended
Theratears: Not Recommended
Everyone's eye chemistry is different, and different products will affect each person uniquely. So keep your mind open and be willing to try many things. Consider also: humidifiers, night gels, eyelid cleansers, microwaveable hot pads, sunglasses, and anything else out there.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 25, 2024Style: Refresh CelluviscVerified PurchaseCame in two days. Products was properly packaged. These eye drop gels are helpful to those with nighttime dry eyes.
- Reviewed in the United States on November 22, 2024Style: Refresh CelluviscVerified PurchaseThis works really well for me to use at the end of the day when I'm done watching TV and I'm done working on my computer or my phone. I tried it during the middle of the day and it was a little too thick and took a little too long to disperse so I have use this one for just before bedtime.

- Reviewed in the United States on November 1, 2024Style: Refresh CelluviscVerified PurchaseMy optometrist recomended these eye drops after I complained of dry eyes with my contact lenses.
