I got the Tears Again liposome lid spray on Tuesday and used it half a dozen times since then. I wonder if it is suppose to help with tear formation in the long run or just work while using it. I am not sure yet how it works for me. It may take time.
I am wondering if anyone has tried either of these 2 products:

(there is a mens formula too)
The womens (and mens) homepathic formula above is also sold here:

You have to type in "dry eyes" in the search, the link won't go directly to the product. But when you do, this is what it says, and this is one place that talks about artificial drops making our eyes produce less tears on their own. I have not heard this before and wonder if it could be true at all and if it is true, does it apply to preservative free drops too?

In extreme case of dryness, for example, the drops might be used hourly in the beginning and usage decreased as the condition improves until drops are no longer needed.

NatO'S philosophy on treating dry eye:
Dry eye is a chronic condition expressed as the bodies inactivity in producing any or all of the different tear film components or in maintaining cell health on the comeal surface. We believe replacing fluids (artificial tears) allows the body to reduce its own moisturizing efforts and therefor is contrary to the healing process. NatO drops work in the opposite direction. They contain micro dilutions of ingredients that are known to cause dryness if ingested in large (toxic) doses. The body identifies the essence of these ingredients and responds as if they were actually present that is by counteracting a perceived threat and increasing tear production appropriately.
Differential advantages:
Homeopathic eye drops have the advantage of relieving the symptoms by healing the underlying cause, rather than ******g symptoms or artificially replacing fluids. Side effects are unheard of. Homeopathic mechanism of action: While the exact mechanism of action is not presently understood, homeopathic medicines are thought to gently trigger the bodies natural healing response. Homeopathic medicine is based on a system of treatment proven effective by over 200 years of clinical use.
