I used to be a chronic user of Opcon-A (redness reliever drops) and recently quit them cold turkey about a week ago to help end this rebound redness mess that I got myself into.
For now I am using only dryness relief drops in attempt to help ease the redness and irritation I have from not using the Redness reliever. Are drops such as Soothe XP, Systane and optive ok to use whenever you need them? I stick them in my refrigerator so they feel good on my eyes when I use them. I currently find myself using them about 5-6 times a day. Is this ok? Do these drops have side effects or rebound effects that I should be concerned about?
ALSO, I used these redness relievers for about 2-2.5 years everyday and quit them cold turkey about a week ago.I noticed my eyes are starting to look better everyday, but theres still redness in them. How long should I expect for them to return to normal? I have only been off the vasoconstricters for a week.
