Would this be good if you have dry eye or mucus "strings" that I occasionally pull out of my eye? My eye sight is fine. I am 33.

Lutien and Zeaxanthin are normally taken to promote healthy retina and to guard against macular degeneration which is usually associated with middle aged people. My doctor recommends artificial tears for dry eye. I would suggest you consult your physician to see if any health issues are involved.

I think I understand more clearly now, what you you are asking. The "wet" and "dry" talk about macular degeneration has to do with blood vessels growing on the retina behind the eye. "Wet" and "dry" do not have anything to do with your eyes feeling dry or wet. Hope this helps. It must be confusing to one without knowledge of macular degeneration "talk".

I am very sorry, I don't know the answer to your question. I do not notice any difference in my eyes when I take this product. It was prescribed for me because I have age related "dry" macular degeneration. This product has been shown to help delay the onset of "wet" macular degeneration which is seriously bad for one's eyesight. I am 79 and have had "dry" macular degeneration for approximately 12 years. When my eyes are dry, I use an artificial tear product by Bausch & Lomb. Wish I could help you but only know about how this applies to me. I would think that ICaps wouldn't hurt but certainly do not know if they would help.

I doubt these will help you. They are a vitamin supplement containing a couple of substances that promote eye health. I've never noticed any effect on eye moisture from taking them.

Ive been taking for several years for Macular degeration, and it has slowed the deterioration ,, plis helped the dry eye progress . I recommend them.

No. This product is useless. It has very little lutein. Look for floraglo lutein. I like the one vitacost has. It has unbeatable price.

Actually, this was suggested to me by my opthalmologist for aging eyes. What you may have is an eye allergy and I would see a doctor about an appropriate eye drop. BUT: iCaps is a very important component for good health and has extra elements that other vitamins don't have; Lutein is one and so is xeanthinan *spelling?*

I am not sure if it would be good for your condition. My husband takes these because he has glaucoma and his doctor recommended these vitamins for his condition.

I use them for chronic dry eye and my doctor has me use them up to four times a day. at first i had the same problem but now they work better. do not put more than one drop in at a time if you use more than that is when you run into problems. i hope this is helpful :)

Hello, I wear a PROSE (prosthetic rigid RX contact lens) due to chronic severe dry eye and this saline was recommended by my doctor at University MI Kellogg Eye Ctr. for my saline solution. It is not a dry eye drop, like Refresh drops. I wish you luck. �

I spoke with my optomistrist, and she indicated that she knew of no eye condition that would prevent a person from using this type of light. She actually encouraged it. She did recommend that each person check with their own eye doctor, and if there was any discomfort at all, to discontinue use. She also advised against staring right in the light, but rather, let it shine on the side of your face.

I wouldn't. It would likely cause irritation inside the eye. I have found this to happen with other products.

My eye doctor prescribed Sustane Lubricant Eye Drops also. She gave me a trial size to use. I have a dry-eye problem at night. At least once every night, I must use some kind of drops. My choice of drops is Refresh Tears Lubricant (not the gel). No other product has been as helpful. I'm not sure why doctors recommend Sustane over the Refresh product. I hope this help you with an annoying problem.

I have the same problem with dry skin around my eyes. I just put it on about 3 hours ago after the drying waters of swimming, and it still feels moist. It works for me.Thanks for asking!

I have never had a problem with dry eyes, so I can't answer your question, but I have asked Nordic Naturals questions directly from their web site. They have never overstated anything with me. Good Luck

The MGD is for people with MGD problems, which is where the tear evaporates too quickly due to not having enough oil in your tears. The CMC doesn't contain the oil as the MGD does. If you've tried standard eye drops for 'dry eyes' and they don't work, I would try the MGD.

i have only used these and they work great. i have very dry eyes. i have used them for over five years and have tried many other brands.

You need actually very little. Just drop is enough for both eyes. Otherwise your drowning your eyes in the stuff. I would say that you could get at least 6 months out of it, perhaps 8. I've used it now for two months and used approx. a quarter of it. And I apply it twice a day.

I am not sure but the eye doctor said that she was doing a study on this product. She had a few on the product for a about 6 to 12 m0nths. One man could actually see better. Mom is 97 years old and she is doing good. This product is making the tissue behind the eye stronger or healthy. I hope this helps some people. I might work for some and not for others. We will keep mom on it and her sister is on it

Do they help with sagging? No, not really. :( They really just help to reduce puffiness and facial swelling in the mornings after waking up. I do not have a sagging eye skin problem, so I'm not entirely sure what to suggest, I'm sorry. Maybe regenerist from Olay? :)

In my experience, applied carefully does alleviate the dryness and puckering. As usual, be careful applying anything around eyes

That is one of the uses I have used it for. IT was recommended to me by an eye doctor who said that there are two problems with the eyes regarding computers. One is that the the flickering lights are hard on the eyes and the brain to process. The second is that we blink less and consequently our eyes dry out. In fact, he said that most people's eye pain is dryness caused by looking at screens more that we were designed to do. Systane lasts longer than other products I have used.

I use the gel drops primarily at night.....the gel blurs my vision for a few minutes immediately after use. It is OK to use them in the morning, as well, though. (I do on occasion if my eyes are really dry and scratchy when I get out of bed, but I don't plan on reading or driving for about 10-15 minutes after use.

I have used it and it works fine. Just be sure that it doesn't get to hot in Micro way. I let it go to long and it gets hot. So I only did it a few seconds and it felt goood on my dry eyes.
