Had an immediate allergic reaction to TheraTears. Eyes burned, felt worse, turned blood red and watery. Had to wash them out immediately with pure saline. Eyes hurt for over 24 hours.

Drops ok (ish) but the dispenser is the worst ever, stubby little spout that you have to nearly touch your eye to get the drops in and also the dispenser is far to tough to squeeze so all or nothing drops running down your face, they say use two drops a time good luck with that often five or six come out untill thebottle gets half empty then none comes out without using high pressure from your fingers and if youve got arthritic fingers then that hurts! AWFULL DISPENSER worst ive ever used and ive been using drops for 50 yrs!Read More Read Less

I was taking other medications for Glaucoma which dried out my eyes. My ophthalmologist wanted me to use dry eye drops that has no no preservatives. Thera Tears were the only ones available. I noticed as 2024 progressed that my dry eye was getting worse, my long distance vision was getting more blurred (could barely see when driving), and that often my eyes crusted overnight. My opthamologist noticed a big change in vision and that my IOLs had a film on them. He oredered laser surgery. Still my blurry vision got worse. Reviewed my Thera Tears info again and noticed the 45 day issue for using the drops. Googled Thera Tears and saw all the problems other people were having. Discontinued the drops. After 48 hours most of my blurry vision went away, eye crusting discontinued, and the dry eye improved. Will let all my ophthalmologist know about Thera TearsRead More Read Less

My husband had a very bad reaction to the drops. Extremely painful burning sensation. Has to flush eyes with saline for a long time to get rid of it.

Works well enough when you can actually manage to get drops out of the bottle which requires a very hard squeeze. I have arthritis in my thumbs and these made my thumbs hurt. Won't buy again.

These eyedrops turn into crusty, salt like granules on your eyelashes overnight. If you put this product in your eyes they will be glued shut with all of this sand like crystals. If you don’t want to lose eyelashes, do not use this product. It’s very hard to get out of your eyelashes.

I had an allergic reaction. My eyelids became puffy and under my eyes, and on the side of my eyes, my skin turned red. My eyes were also itchy. I had to visit both my dermatologist and allergist a total of 3 times and was prescribed 2 different medications to fix the problem.

First time I tried the drops, my eyes stung and felt drier. I had to use other drops right after. Wish I had seen these reviews sooner. The Amazon reviews were mostly raves! Am throwing the bottle out or will try and return

These drops caused my vision to become distorted. VERY scary. BEWARE. Took a day after I used them for vision to return to normal.

Does anyone else have this issue? The drops solidify on my eyelashes overnight and form sandy crystals, almost like salt, gluing my lashes shut. I have to pry my lashes open and scrub the crystals off. Once, a crystal lodged in eye and I ended up in the emergency room to get it removed.

I have dry eyes caused by prolonged contact use. TheraTears works amazing, as soon as I feel my eyes getting dry I use the drops and feel immediate relief. Highly recommend!

I gave very dry eyes. Tried Thera Tears. Put one drop in each eye before bed. Started watching tv. Each blink my eyes felt drier. To the point of pain, like sand in my eyes. I was my face and splashed water in my eyes. I put other drops in my eyes, flooded them. Went to my eye dr in the morning. She said had I not put other drops in my eyes I would have damaged my cornea my eyes were so dry.

Very badly-designed vial for individual use. It is very easy to scratch your eye using this product.
