I had a fair bit of burning and stinging with Restasis that persisted for hours and hours. My normal level of discomfort was preferable. There was no way I could tolerate it long enough to see if it would have caused improvement. It takes a couple of months to know if it's working for you (or not).

I would not call them teary eyes after the meds just very blurred like Vaseline on a window. When I first started Restasis the drops burned a bit but faded with use. I hope you have great success with your Restasis going forward. Be Safe.
