Wanted to try the Genteal moderate to severe drops but it seems they are discontinued. What's left of them on the internet is very costly. Any drops similar to those?

hmm I usually get  various genteal, its usually good tho for me to rotate brands, I am not a big fan of systane for some reason, I often get various refresh brand

Genteal makes gel drops and eye gel.  I use them both.  I hope they aren't discontinued!

I highly recommend them.

The gel drops are indeed discontinued. Some people are selling what's left on the market for $45 and up.

I have been using drops for ten years and have tried every drop on the market.  I use Genteel gel at night and Thera tears preservative free vials to soothe my eyes.  I have discovered in the last couple years Systane gel drops is an excellent drop to coat your eyes when they are really dry.

Yup, the Genteal eye gel drops are gone. Too bad because they have been a reliable part of my eye management routine for a couple of years.

I looked for substitutes and found Systane Gel Drops and Refresh Liquigel. Although Alcon makes both Systane and Genteal products, I haven't found a Systane product I like. I bought the Refresh Llquigel instead as the Refresh Plus vials are my daily go-to lubricants. I'm on my last bottle of Genteal gel drops and hope I like the Refresh Luquigel as much when it's time to switch.

You know, I will double check my area stores...I did see the nighttime gel, but not the gel-drops? I will check around when I go out.
