Has anyone had any luck with BioTears? It is a gel cap pill taken orally
for dry eyes.
Am I wasting my money? Does it really work? Are there any side effects?
Do you recomend the pills for dry eyes?

I personally wouldn't want to take anything systemic for this, but that's
just me. Better to treat a problem locally and not "globally" if at all
possible!

Do you suppose peeling onions would help us ? Leigh I haven't had
lazer surgery but had -2 cataract surgeries - it is strange , not
painfull and quite a color show also . will lazer surgery lower the
IOP ?

IOP ? Oh let us know if the Bio _tears works !!

I haven't used that product, but I used something else (can't remember
what or from where) that was probably similar. It didn't do me any
good, even when I added the walnuts and evening primrose oil they
recommended.

High quality eye drops (Bion Tears) and gels (Genteal, Tears Naturale
P.M.) have worked far better.
