OptaseMGD Advanced Dry Eye Drops - Preservative Free Drops for Dry Eyes and MGD - Lipid-Based Artificial Tears - Demet Technology, Multidose Bottle, Contact Lens Safe - .33 fl oz, 300 Doses

I have tried many eye drops, but this one is sooo much better than the others. Soothes the dry eye and lasts longer than the others. I didn’t like the bottle at first but you have to get the hang of using it. It’s really simple.

I have tried many eye drops over the years, some have worked better than others.These drops are specifically made for people with dry eye and MGD. I wondered if they would be truly different or better. And yes they are! During the day, I use them less frequently than other brands. At night, I have replaced my thicker ointment drops with these which also helps with those pesky errant eyelashes that are caused by ointments. For the first time in years, my eyes will water on their own. I still use a Bruder's eye mask and careful cleaning as part of my routine, but these drops have been a game changer.

These OPTASE MGD drops were recommended (and sold) by my optometrist. They are very soothing. The only down side is that you have to squeeze VERY, VERY hard to get a single drop to come out. I bought a refill here on Amazon. The results are 5+ stars worth but the container is way too hard to use. Life is full of trade offs, I will continue to use these.

Finally, a better product for dry eyes. These drops are so much better than most dry eye drops. So comfortable and soothing for severely dry eyes. Yes, they are pricey, but worth it.

I never experienced eye problems until I moved to Charleston, SC. In the spring, I suddenly developed severe dry eyes with constant stinging throughout the day. The condition worsened to the point that I had to visit the ER. I was later diagnosed with a strong allergy to a specific type of pollen found in this region.I started searching for high-quality eye drops that offer intense hydration without chemicals or preservatives. Unfortunately, natural options are rare.Biotrue ($13): Despite the high ratings, I had to apply it every 5 minutes. The bottle was poorly designed—the plastic collapsed and the drops stopped coming out. I threw it away immediately. 🌟OPTASE ($25): About 90% natural. I liked that it contained Sacha Inchi Seed Oil, which is rich in antioxidants and deeply hydrating. However, I still needed to apply it almost every hour, and the bottle lasted only four days.🌟🌟🌟Forte Eye Drops ($20): 99% natural ingredients. Provided immediate moisture and comfort from the first application. I used it every hour during peak dryness and found it more effective overall.🌟🌟🌟🌟I also recommend Quercetin Phytosome capsules to naturally lower histamine levels—ideal for those who prefer natural solutions over traditional antihistamines.If you suffer from pollen allergies, wear pollen-protective glasses outdoors (anti-fog versions are available), change HVAC filters regularly, and consider using an indoor air filter that blocks pollen. Keeping your eyes hydrated and histamine levels controlled is key.

These drops are soothing and upgrade from similar drops I used to use.

Eye drops work very well and were delivered on time.

I’ve been using this product for over a year for Meibomian Gland Dsyfunction (MGD) as diagnosed by my Optometrist and the medication works very well. 5 Stars awarded for that, but the dispensing is awful for a 1 Star rating max (thus the overall 3 rating). I apply the medication twice a day before using the warm moist compress, followed by my Restasis Rx. As directed in the instructions I shake the vail a little to mix, remove cap and hold the vial inverted with the nozzle about 2 inches from my eye. After dispensing a drop to each eye, I return the bottle to the upright position and give it a little snap movement to discharge any fragment of a drop off its tip, and replace the cap. I then return the bottle to its original box and store upright. Take a close look at the pictures and you should note it still has about 1/3 of product remaining, and the bottle has indentations from the slight vacuum within from discharge of product with no replacement from outside air to equalize the pressure inside the vial. Also, it takes quite a bit of pressure from my thumb and forefinger to get the drop to form and fall. I recently found another substitute product that uses the individual vials, but unlike the Restasis vials whereas you can literally snap the torn off cap back so can use multiple times that day, this alternative to Optase, you cannot and waste most of the product in throwing the one-time use vial away. So I cannot recommend it either.I haven’t found a replacement to-date and may have to reach out to my Optometrist for a different brand. It’s a shame because I really like this product.
