Q: what eye drops are best for dry eye

I have dry eye because I must take Lyrica.  Restaril was prescribed but it is too costly.  I need something OTC.

Hi Pearl,

 

There are many different over the counter eye drops you can buy. Something like Artificial Tears is a solution that you should find soothing. You can even find generic equivalents at most drug or discount stores.

 

You can also ask your pharmacist to recommend something OTC. I've found they are usually quite helpful.

 

To your health,

Kathi
