It stings for a few seconds only, but quite bearable for me really. I can understand how some folks would not be able to tolerate it though.
My right eye is the worst by far, I can't even look at at computer screen (bright white images) for too long before pain sets in (right eye only).........so I have been trying different things on that eye in relation to the application of Optimel.
- Apply a blob direct to the inside of the bottom eyelid, around the mid position.
- Apply using a cotton bud along the lower eyelid margin.
- Apply a small blob to the far outside bottom corner of the eye under the lid (it's that bottom outside quadrant that gives me most pain with my MGD/dry eyes).
Early days yet to see whats best for me. However, I am enjoying the relatively instant relief Optimel gives and the length of time it appears to be active. Better than any liquid eyedrops anyways!
