User Reviews for Vuity ophthalmic (eye)

The discomfort I experienced from these drops is most definitely not worth the minor improvement in up close vision. I use a 1.75 reader normally and I had horrible headaches each day from the ocular muscle contraction these drops cause. By the third day I felt nauseated and felt like I was looking through a fishbowl. I'm definitely NOT impressed, and I'm supposed to be their target audience. NOPE! Just NOPE! I'll stick with my readers.

Did not improve my farsighted vision but rather altered the contrast in my vision so there were dark streaks and an overall vignette-like appearance where everything outside of the main circle of vision was dark. The main circle of vision did not improve. The adjustment in my vision caused headaches. Grateful it wore off after 5-6 hrs.

PROS With full-distance contacts, I have a full range of vision for about 6-7 hours. I think it's pretty amazing. I've been in monovision contacts and HATE always having one fuzzy for distance (since they cut the power so I have some near vision). I have readers everywhere. After about 6 hours, it starts to fade and I just throw on progressive readers for the remainder. I think it's pretty amazing. CONS: Slight burning sensation and makes my eyes very red initially. It does go away after a bit. Wish it didn't do that, but I'll take the trade off. I don't have any issues with darkness, tinting, vertigo, etc. I'm 58. Doc said if I was 65+ she wouldn't even bother having me try. So I have a few years left....Read More Read Less

Mislead into thinking this was a cure . It’s just a temporary band aide. One / Two hours tops . Way too expensive and the bottle is just too small for larger sized hands . Use Saline drops it’s cheaper and will give same results . Buyer beware !!

I am a nurse practitioner and was holding out hope Vuity would let me go without glasses some. I did notice a pretty quick slight improvement in vision but developed a nagging headache over my browser within 15 minutes that lasted a good four hours. While my reading close vision and computer vision improved it was very slight and I still found myself grabbing my glasses. Effects only lasted a few hours. Super disappointed in my response to the drops which by the way are expensive at $80 and were not covered by my insurance. Read More Read Less

The first time I took the drops I had a headache for about 10 minutes. I had to sit down and let it subside. Afterward, if there was any vision improvement, I couldn't tell. I had to put on my reader glasses to read my computer screen and cell phone. I tried again this morning. I did not get the headache, but again, I don't notice any improved vision. I am wearing my readers to type this review right now!

no side effects 3rd day of trying and no improvement

These drops are amazing!! I’m a nurse and find it’s difficult to put readers on and off with gloved hands. When I first put them in, the first hour I get a slight headache and my distance vision gets very blurry. After that hour, the headache goes away and my distance is crystal clear and reading is perfect! Lasts about 8 hours total which is perfect. I can’t rave enough about them. I have no idea why so many people don’t like them. I think it might have to do with their prescription and age/expectations. I’ve read once over +2.00 they don’t work as well. Im a +1.00 and these are fantastic!! Read More Read Less

Near total vision loss within 10 minutes of placing one drop in each eye. Coupled with headache and burning eyes. My sight resumed in about 2 hours. It was a very scary situation. It was like looking through two tiny holes punched in a piece of cardboard. I'm 54 but this web page is so poorly written I can't indicate my age on the drop-down menu.

Tried today for the first time. Within 15 minutes I was seeing my computer screen much more clearly than normal! I can finally work without readers! I did not experience any stinging in my eyes, and only a mild headache for about 20 minutes, but very tolerable. I highly recommend! Of course they may not be for everyone, and each person's experience is different, but I am very pleased!

I am a doctor. Tried these drops once. Horrible experience. Paid $87.00 for this crap. Once again big pharma wins we lose. Dont spend a penny on this marketing scam. Shame on you FDA for allowing this to go thru.

Bottle contains way too little product for the high price of $100, especially, when the drops only last for up to 4 hours (and don’t really work at all?) Can’t see how it benefits not having to wear progressive lenses or readers for that matter. Insurance won’t cover the costs neither, so we’re sitting with a product and supplier who is trying to monopolize with something that doesn’t really work???

This is one of the worst products that I have ever tried! About 30 seconds after applying the drops I ended up with a headache, blurred and foggy vision, red eyes, and a feeling of near disorientation. I will never try it again; buyer be ware! I noticed no difference in my ability to read print. I will no longer be frustrated with wearing glasses.

I work in ophthalmology. I’m 49 and work in a computer with very small font. My Dr. asked me to try this drop and gave me a sample as he wanted to truthfully give his patients his and his staffs experience. He has been using it 4 days and seems to like it. I, on the other hand tried today and to my dismay it burned so bad for 1 min. I felt like I needed a numbing drop first as my eyes got extremely red and watering. My vision improved for maybe 2 hours but was also very hazy. To that I add, what’s the point? I still saw clearer with my readers.Read More Read Less

It took about 45 minutes for the drops to work. The first few days I did get what felt like a tension headache but that isn't bothering me now. The problem is that they only work for 2 hours at most, then I'm back to my glasses. I can't find anywhere in their FAQ about whether it's okay to put more drops in on the same day, so I have not tried that yet and haven't asked my eye dr. My cost was $79 for a little bottle, which I'd be willing to pay if they lasted at least 6 hours. But for only 1 or 2 hours it is really not worth it. I'm not likely to renew the Rx. Bummer.

I have been using this sample for 6 days now. Each time I use it,it stings my eyes for appr. 2 seconds . Today I used it & eyes stung ,head started to hurt & I had to turn off the TV & take off my glasses & try to relax. I will not be picking up the prescription!! Iwould rather wear my glasses instead of taking the risks of Retina detachment, red spots,black spots,ect!! The Optamologists asked me to let them know how it goes... I certainly will!! PS: if it seems to good to be true...it probably isn't right for you & I!!Read More Read Less

Very disappointed with this product. It only made my vision a little clearer for a very short time. I still needed glasses. It also made my eyes red and dry. Everything looked darker and it made me feel like I had Virtigo. Don’t drive after using it! I paid $145 for a month supply. I waisted my money.

Horrible experience. Burning eyes, terrible headache, blurry vision, dizziness and general feeling unwell for several hours after using. Didn't help far-sightedness at all. Worthless product and far too expensive.

This stuff is garbage. Makes everything super dark for a few hours after you u se it because it constricts you pupils. Also your eyesight is cloudy. I saw zero improvement in my up close eyesight. Please don't waste your money!

Gave me a horrible eye/headache within about 15 mins of administration. After about an hour I could read close up beautifully but it definitely was not worth the splitting headache
