These are NOT eye drops made just for hayfever, but with hayfever upon us, these are PERFECT for moistening the eyes when they get too dry and itchy. And at less than £1 a bottle, they are a steal

These are a NHS first line treatment for dry eyes ( third line being for more severe dry eye conditions ).
They show up as a recommended prescription drug because they have a Drug Tariff / MIMs price of £1.21 per 10mm.
Further research has just shown to me that they contain preservatives which can aggravate dry eyes more.
Just try them out and see!
Damn, I paid £3.50 for some in boots yesterday! Will buy some of these too for that price.
Thanks :smiley: Hot from me!

This is from the customer questions & answers section
Question: Can I use them with contact lenses
Answer: The leaflet actually states: "If you wear soft contact lenses, remove them before applying Hypromellose Drops and do not replace for at least 15 minutes"

Home Bargains sells Optivive moisturising eye drops with 0.3% HPMC. A 10ml bottle comes in at 89p and the package says it is safe for use with contact lenses.

Got enough tears of my own without adding artificial ones :disappointed:
