    I used Refresh single use artifical tears. Massive plastic waste but it’s been my go-to since laser eye surgery. Each dosage is individually packaged.

    Every ophthalmologist I’ve seen hates the reusable bottles of eyedrops for various reasons, primarily because they have additives for anti-microbial action. These additives do not help hydrate your eye in any way.

    Costco sells the 100 pack for 20 bucks.

      There are a few brands of preservative free drops that aren’t single use now. The applicator on these is different so the preservative is not needed. Granted. I use single use refresh most of the time at home, but I carry a bottle of preservative free when I go out.
