To denise @trnrmom1, Yes, I have had severe dry eyes for years. Ophthalmologists have tried numerous drops on me, but no drops ever helped me. I couldn't even keep the plugs in my eyes. I think I probably know the non-preservative you refer to me and it helped very little for me. The only thing that ever helped me was a Dr who cauterized my tear ducts [yes, it is painful as hell!]. I had it done twice [takes awhile to build up the stamina to request to have it done again!] and called to schedule a third time, but the Dr changed his specialty and now does cataracts only. I can't find anyone else to do it. And yes, even though I have severe dry eyes, my eyes water badly. I never got a satisfactory answer as to why, but I googled it and it is normal with dry eye, for some reason [I'm 77 and have memory problems]. I sympathize with you and wish I could give you helpful information. Dry eyes are tough. I think the worst for me is how painful they can be and the feeling that you have sand in your eyes when you blink [OUCH!]. As for the pain, it is like a migraine in your eyes, is the best way I can describe it. Hang in there and I hope you can find something that works for you!
