Optrex Actimist 10 ml Spray - Dual Action Relief For Tired, Dry Eyes - Long-Lasting Treatment For Discomfort And Fatigue

Does the job.

I never thought this product would work, but it does and is very effective for eyes that are dry as a result of medication, working in dusty environments or just first thing in the morning A lot easier to use than drops as you spray onto your closed eye lids. I did try less expensive alternatives but they were not as long lasting or effective.

I do think this is an expensive product, seeing what is in it - soya lecithin, salt, alcohol, vitamin A and phenoxyethanol. All except the last really cheap, and the last slightly dubious - in Japan this is a restricted product because it can depress the nervous system!On the other hand, within four days it took my eyes from 'burning, tired and itchy' to almost normal, which is pretty good going. I am in a long phase of pretty continuous proofreading, hundreds of pages, and this plays havoc with my eyes; I think I forget to blink, being too concentrated on reading. So my tear film gets shot... this eye spray helped me very well, which is worth 12 quid. My eyes are still slightly tired, but the burning sensation is gone, which is great.Recommended to anybody who does lots of reading and/or computer screen time. It is no substitute for blinking - but helps you when you forget, for long periods on end. Good stuff - even though expensive. And the fact that it has no expiry date (not a 30-day one, anyway) is due to alcohol + salt, and that makes it better than those eyedrops, which do 'expire' quickly.

Good product and Great customer service

just the job

I will update this once I’ve continued to use it over a week.First day of use, not noticed much difference yet but there is a definite design flaw which has lost it 2 stars immediately. If you hold the spray 10cm from the eye the spray does not just target the eye, but also covers your entire face and hair. Not great at all.Go back to your product design engineers and ask them to design the spray mechanism better please.

I suffer from tired, dry and scratchy feeling eyes - probably as a result of working at my computer (and then looking at my phone during the times I'm not!).This isn't my first time I've tried resolving this issue. In the past I tried eyedrops but only used them once or twice as I didn't like putting them in my eyes.Recently I decided to look for alternatives and came across this. I loved the idea of just being able to spray them on my dry eyes and have them lubricated. However, probably like yourself reading this review, I was sceptical about them working...Anyway, I decided to order and try them out and let me tell you - they 100% work. I'm SO glad I ordered these!Whenever my eyes start feeling tired/dry/scratchy, I close my eyes and give them a spray and it relieves my symptoms almost instantly!I've only used this product for a week or so now and honestly can't see myself going without.I saw some reviews mention the high price, which I understand as it is a small bottle, however I've used it quite frequently over the past week and the bottle has barely emptied. Also, if you suffer like myself and need a solution other than eye drops, the price can be justified for the relief. I mean it costs less than eating out after all, and self care isn't an area to cut costs in my opinion.Overall, this is an absolutely fantastic product for those suffering from dry eyes. Definitely recommend!

Prefer over drops
