Are You Kidding? Most Of The Drops I Use Sting And Make My Eyes Red. My Doc Tells Me It's Because I Have Dry Eyes. It's Very Frustrating.

are you referring to drops FOR glaucoma or the ones they give you to test for it? The ones for the test do make my eyes burn.. I hate it.

I had the problem with Timoptic...I was on it for years then all of a sudden it started burning badly whenever I would use it...felt like I was putting acid on my eyes or something.

So I actually refused to take them anymore until one of my doctors would write me a different perscription. at the time I was seeing my 'secondary' doctor who handles all my contact woes.....unfortunately it took her a couple weeks before she would write anything new. Lesson learned I always go to my 'normal' doctor with perscription issues now LOL..

As for the stuff they use to do the pressure checks...hmmm I don't think it burns...I'd remember if that were the case..
