Review: My Autoimmune Dry Eye Lifesaver - Having an autoimmune disease gives me terrible dry eyes, but these preservative-free artificial tears are a lifesaver. My eye doctor originally recommended them to me after giving me a sample, and I liked them so much I bought a large count. They are incredibly soothing and provide instant relief. I love that they come in single-use containers. They are well packaged, making it so easy to always have them on me in my bag or pocket. Just recently, a younger friend’s daughter got sand in her eye, and I used one of these vials to safely flush it out! If I could change anything, I wish they weren’t so expensive. However, for the relief and portability, they are absolutely worth the money but I use sparingly because of the cost and save them for my worst days. Review: These drops are wonderful for my eyes - Refresh Optive Mega-3 Lubricant Eye Drops Preservative Free are the best drops that I have tried. I have a long history of drug allergies and sensitivity reactions to products but Refresh Optive Mega-3 Lubricant Eye Drops Preservative Free have given me no problems whatsoever. After having cataract surgery, glaucoma and dry eyes, I've tried different drops but this has worked wonders for me. These drops last longer and give instant relief with no residue buildup around my eyes like some others. The vials are easy to carry in the purse and keeps from getting a whole bottle contaminated. I don't have to use as many in a day, therefore it saves me money. I would recommend that you give this a try if you have sensitive dry eyes and your doctor approves it for your condition. ## Features - FAST ACTING: Rapid relief to comfort dry, irritated eyes - LASTING RELIEF: One drop provides 10+ hours of dry eye relief (results may vary) (Data on file, AbbVie, Inc.

In the US, some eyedrop ingredients are considered as "active" based on FDA Monograph rules. Many useful and protective ingredients are included in eyedrops, but those not classified as "active" will be listed separately on the carton. **Q: are they preservative free** A: Yes they are preservative free, but that’s not necessarily a good thing. The manufacturer says you should only open a vial, use 1-2 drops per eye and then DISCARD the vial and all remaining lubricant. The reason is that because there is no preservative, any bacteria that gets into the opened vial will multiply like crazy and within a short period of time could become enough bacteria to create an eye infection after repeated use of a vial. These drops are far better than most others on the OTC market, but they are very expensive, especially if you need to use more than one vial a day for blepharitis, etc. At $24 a box (retail price) you are purchasing just 1/5 of an ounce (!) of lubricant in 30 delivery vials — that would be a bit more than a teaspoonful of lubricant total. **Q: Do these eyedrops have flaxseed oil?** A: Yes, but as the fifth Inactive Ingredients. Active Ingredients, eye lubricants, are carboxymethylcellulous sodium, glycerin and polysorbate. BF has severely dry eyes and so far Retaine MGD has proven to be her go to drops. Nano Tears work but are only single use. **Q: can they be used during the day, to drive, will they blur vision?** A: They do blur my vision for a few (2-3 ) minutes. I usually relax with my head tilted back to really get the benefit from the drop because the drop relieves the burning immediately to my irritated dry eye. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My Autoimmune Dry Eye Lifesaver *by A***A on August 23, 2026* Having an autoimmune disease gives me terrible dry eyes, but these preservative-free artificial tears are a lifesaver.

Either way my contacts have been fitting worse and worse lately. I thought maybe the manufacturer changed the shape or something, but they wouldn't stay in and my vision was not improved wearing them. I have to wear contacts at work and didn't have time to get refitted for new ones so I bought another set of my regular ones and thought I'd try these drops to see if they helped. I can't believe I'm just now discovering these! The first day they didn't seem to help much in the way of the contacts helping my vision, but the second day was a whole new story. My contacts went in easy and felt great- alll day. Whenever I fall asleep with my contacts in, I wake to find them glued to my eyeballs. I fell asleep on the second day with my contacts in and when I woke the next morning my eyes, and contacts were totally fine, so fine that I just wore them all day that day. Just to experiment I went to sleep with them again and the next morning I could tell I needed to change them, but they weren't totally glued to my eyeballs. There is no other reason than these drops for my eyes to feel so good. I initially gave 3 stars, but that was purely because I had found them significantly cheaper elsewhere, but there is a no return policy so I had to eat the cost which yes is frustrating, but after seeing (pun intended) how well they work negated my grumble. I do like they come in individual tubes, but I wish there were more tubes with a little less in each one. I don't always use the whole amount and I'd rather not waste any since they are so expensive. ## Frequently Bought Together - Refresh Optive MEGA-3 Lubricant Eye Drops Preservative-Free Artificial Tears, 0.01 fl oz (0.4 mL), 30 Single-Use Containers - Refresh Celluvisc Lubricant Eye Gel Drops, Single-Use Containers, 30 Count (Pack of 1) - Systane Nighttime Lubricant Eye Ointment 3.5g Tube --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.no/products/45859513-refresh-optive-mega-3-preservative-free](https://www.desertcart.no/products/45859513-refresh-optive-mega-3-preservative-free) --- *Product available on Desertcart Norway* *Store origin: NO* *Last updated: 2026-10-24*
