@sue225.......as I sit and think about this.....I don't think I have had any stinging since I started refrigerating them. Even traveling wasn't bad. The other reason I like them cold is that then I know I am covering the entire eye.......as well as getting in all the corners.....

May you be safe and protected.

@artscaping Hi Chris! I must thank you for the fridge tip on Restasis. My mom is 6 weeks in on the drops and was about to give up due to stinging. I told her your tip... she mentioned it to her eye doc and he said, "great idea"...so, she's giving it a whirl for another 2 weeks. Fingers crossed it works because I really think Restatis might help her severe dry eye. Thanks a bunch! Hope you are as well as well can be.
Best wishes,
Rachel

Pharmacist told me to hold the tear ducts - kinda like pinching your upper nose - while "instilling" the drops to keep them where they should be.
