Title: retaine anybody?
Post by: bluegardenia on September 07, 2018, 01:27:11 PM
some time ago I read here that RETAINE drops is great for our eyes so I asked somebody who was coming to the States to buy me some. unfortunately they bought me ten boxes  but for me  systane ultra is much much better: anyone is using retaine?

I had tried Ocusoft Retaine MGD but prefer Refresh. I think it's personal, some drops feel better than others. I was hoping that the mineral oil in it would act like my missing lipid layer and help my eyes retain moisture, but I felt just the opposite, I was applying Ocusoft Retaine MGD drops more often. It's highly rated on Amazon.

It's kind of spendy- 10 boxes is a lot of money. Will you be able to use them?
