Can Refresh Contacts be used to drop directly in eye without contacts?!


Question: My eye doctor told me about this, that its for both with contacts and without. But i am not 100% sure this is the right one he is talking about. He told me the brand is "Refresh Contacts" and the link below is the item that was the only one i could find at walgreens

Yes, the doctors I work for say the Refresh brand artificial tears can be used with or without contacts, even though the bottle may not say so.

They tell the patients to use the drops even if they don't feel they need them: if your eyes feel dry/irritated, then you've waited too long to use them.

With other artificial tears, the drs say you can use the Artificial Tears for Contact Wearers in your eyes even if you don't wear contacts, but if you wear contacts, you should not use the Artificial Tears for Non Contact Wearers. (Got it? ha ha - it sounds all twisted when I read it back)

Yes, not a problem at all. Refresh eye drops are one of the best brands for dry eyes. i had been using it while wearinf lenses and after doing lasik.
