Sometimes I’ll even use it during the day.It is a thicker gel style ointment, so it can make it a little difficult to see for a little while after application. I would keep that in mind and only use it during times when you are able to have your vision slightly impaired.It has a tube style applicator instead of a bottle because of the gel like consistency of the ointment. It can be a little difficult to get a small dose because the tube wants to push out a lot of ointment even with a small amount of pressure.It’s kind of expensive but worth it. I alternate with other drops to make them last longer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Nighttime gel, also use during the day

I sliced my eye with my own fingernail one day when I was going to push my glasses up. Worst pain imaginable! Went through 3 years of a healing process because the wound kept ripping back open with my dry eyes in the morning. I've tried just about every drop imaginable. This nighttime gel is the best and helps me the most through the healing process. I also used it during the day. Expect a bit of burry vision for the first few minutes but it clears up. It's a very small tube but it last a while. Would recommend 10/10!

This is an absolute must for me with my dry eyes. I feel it does better than regular eyedrops. But I only use at night. It is easy to use but you do have to be careful about how much you push on the tube because a lot can come out. You don’t need too much. It is effective in relieving dryness in my eyes. definitely would recommend.

I recently had Lasik and the doctor recommended using this before bed. The texture is very odd. You have to put it on right as you go to bed and I recommend using an eye mask so you do not stay in your pillowcase. It did help with the dryness. I woke up with last dryness than regular drop.

Night time is a good time to lubricate your dry eyes. I live in the desert and Dry Eye is really a problem. Trying to find a night time lubricant in a tube is proving difficult at Target and drug stores. My latest eye exam specified using this form and after several unsuccessful trips to find it, Bolo came to my rescue. I'm dismayed to find how expensive a tiny little tube is and wonder how long it will last before I need to put myself on a regular shipping order.

5.0 out of 5 stars The only thing that really helped after wind burned eyes

A. · December 1, 2024

I experienced a sudden extreme bought of dry eye months after starting a job that requires me to get in and out of many many cars after driving them for only a few minutes at a time. My eye problems started at the end of the summer where I had grown into the habit of, after getting into hot car after hot car, I would crank up the air conditioner sky high and the fan speed up as high as possible, and point the fan straight at my upper body and face. Because I was only in each car for a few minutes, I had the air blasting at me nearly all day. Further, during this time we had a few weeks where it was constantly windy. This all led to my eyes becoming extremely painfully dry (which has never ever happened to me before), so much so that I had to wear laboratory goggles in my home and motorcycle glasses outside and at work. I had to shut my eyes when walking because I could feel the air hitting my eyeballs like paper cuts. It was excruciatingly painful. I got gel eyedrops but those never lasted more than a few minutes at a time and still did not help as much as I needed. Then I bought this at my local pharmacy and, even though this is a night time eye product, I had no other option than to use this during the day and at night. After doing that for several weeks my eyes began to heal. Even now I use this whenever I feel that my eyes have been or may be exposed to prolonged wind or fans, and today my eyes seem to have recovered. I’m very thankful for this product and will never go without it again. I try to carry it around with me wherever I go.This product has the consistency of Vaseline basically, so when you put it in you will have blurred vision. However, that was something I was willing to live with as the pain was unbearable and the relief this ointment provided was instant. The way I apply it is I lift up my upper eyelid, squeeze some ointment out underneath it, and do the same for the lower one, then I roll my eyes around both ways. I also put this in as many times a day as I need.Update: as of 12/18/24, the sides of the tube split open and began leaking out. I put electrical tape around it, so hopefully that will stop the leaking. I will still use and keep purchasing the product as it’s the only thing that helps me, but may handle it with more care so this doesn’t happen again.

This product really helps, although it can only be used when going to bed. Very sticky. I bought the eye drops for daytime use.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not the most solidified nighttime ointment, very drippy

I’ve been using this overnight eye ointment after lasik surgery, as advised by my eye surgeon. He did not recommend a particular brand so this one was on sale.I find the Systane ointment is hard to get into my eye. The tube pushes a lot out, so to get it in my lower eyelid without touching it and keeping it sterile is not really possible. Once I get it in one eye, my hand is already slippery from the first eye when trying to get it into my other eye. Extra ointment oozes out of the tube and then once the lid is on, creates a problem for the next night. Plus by the time I get the second eye done, the first eye has ointment dripping out.It seems like this ointment breaks down and becomes super liquidy really quickly. I had a different brand previously and it was much more congealed, as in I could get it in both eyes without it dripping out before I can even turn off the light and go to bed.It does seems to hydrate so I’ll put this tube in my overnight travel bag and get another tube of my preferred ointment for my house use.I prefer the Optase Hylo Night ointment better than this Systane.

not for all kind of dry eyes

I have stopped using after two nights of trying. Unfortunately cannot return to Bolo used product. Money wasted.

Tried it - not impressed

Purchased this as I use a CPAP machine which dries my eyes at night and saw this recommended on a US blog . Okay but nothing special - not worth the price in my view. Also a bit 'gunky'. Prefer Blink Intensive Eyes Plus.

goodd

good product, much more lasting in the night in comparison with systane ultra, which i usually use by day.just remember that AFTER you can't read or watch tv, but just sleep....good night.

Excellent

Help with dry eyes. Might not suit everyone but I find it helps, especially when I forget to use my day time drops.
