Anyone using eye drops more than four times a day may find preservative-free drops more beneficial. Preservatives can irritate the eyes over time. How many drops should people use? FDA recommended the manufacturer of these products recall all lots on October 25, 2023, after agency investigators found insanitary conditions in the manufacturing facility and positive bacterial test results from environmental sampling of critical drug production areas in the facility. FDA also recommends consumers properly discard these products. It’s worth keeping in mind that many OTC eye drops contain preservatives, and risk of adverse effects increases with frequent use—if you are administering your eye drops on a more regular basis (more than six times a day), consider a preservative-free option. https://eyetamins.co/products/dry-eyes?sqdid=aBIDZJpRsTnuFnf9J7zmGAENm5lT1az4Z33mSWOZgDYeHwImbgYshN0vI6tFX7CS%2F%2F%2F" rel="nofollow"
