@krisjb1 the one thing I would say about Xiidra and Restasis is the benefit they provide in actually “correcting” (for lack of a better word) dry eyes. I used Xiidra for about 3 months and then could cut back to only once a day without the need to use any other drops. Unfortunately I became lazy and didn’t use for many months and had to start again with 2 applications a day and supplemental OTC preservative-free drops. Just thought I’d share that info.
