I think the subject line says it all : )
Soothe PM at night as needed.
J&J No More Tears Baby Shampoo to wash my face and eyes in the shower. And old timey country doctor told me about that one.
This is awesome if you wake up with a lot of grit and stringers in your eyes.
Genteal Liquid drops #2
Bausch and Lomb -rejuvenation- for reading
Genteal gel severe two - three times a day
Genteal Nightime before bed -
Vaseline over the lids to keep the grit out...
Use my goggles during naps- also goggles for daily outside activities. Goggles for bed - take off when sick of them-
Took me forever to get this process down. Everyone should try as many as possible to find what works best for them. I am going to try systanes new eye drop this week. Balance? Some have more oils than others and cause longer bluriness.
I try every new product made and haven't found one magic bullet yet.
The -Balance- drops are very clear no blur they work well nice long relief. I just prefer the small vials in my pocket and the Tears Naturale works just as well , but they blur you for a minute or so..
